I really want to try this laptop out. Any one have experience with the company?

I don't, but another option worth looking at might be the new riscV main board for framework laptops that was recently announced :)

I didn’t that. I think they are just using that company’s gear for this? But I may try it. I could use a basic laptop for non intensive app use (notes, code, etc)

The performance sounds kind of low for a laptop. Tied with the normal issues of a less popular architecture, I doubt this is anywhere near being able to be a daily driver.
