From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Virgo by System 76 is already designed for board-level repairs. All the schematics is already available, and will be found on their website when ready for production:
https://github.com/system76/virgo
Actually Soller said, that they will release everything needed to start your own production line. Has Framework released the schematics yet?
Yeah there are schematics from framework, I don't think they are full though. But last thing I heard was from a while ago, so they may be more complete nowadays.
Here is an old video of Rossman talking about it https://youtu.be/8cJj8PUY0DU
I didn't know that. Perhaps I need to research a little more before commenting.
Thanks!
Not only that, they support the right to repair and offer replacement parts on ALL of S76's laptops
