System76 are the company behind the popular Pop!_OS Linux distribution, plus various laptops and desktops and now they're expanding once again. Their Pop!_OS is in the top list for Linux users on Steam.
For starters, they're going to be bringing out their own custom PC case for DIY builders. Carl Richell, the CEO and Founder, mentioned on Mastodon their new case is called the Nebula and it's set to arrive later this month for anyone who wanted a case inspired by their in-house custom-built Thelio desktop line. Here's what it looks like currently:

Richell mentioned in a reply there will be three different models for various sized motherboards too.
On top of that System76 formally announced an upgrade to their System76 Open Firmware in a blog post. This update includes: Intel Management Engine being disabled now a bug is fixed, Secure Boot and TPM2 support, increased battery power limits which can give better CPU performance, NVIDIA Dynamic Boost support, Coreboot support for 13th Gen HX-class Intel processors and more.
Quoting: RaabenI've always wanted to buy just a Thelio case - the wood grain totally works for me. This.. not really. So close but still out of reach.
You know you can change the accent right? You can get the one with the wood grain instead.
Quoting: JarmerQuoting: denyasisIt's a very smart looking case. I'd totally consider this for my next ITX build (if I can fit a full size GPU in there, lol)
in a follow up post on the mastadon thread, he says there will be three versions of the case, from mini all the way to eatx. I bet the middle and big one should support a full gpu no problem.
The base Thelio can support a GPU as well, the middle one or larger might be better for the GPU's with 3 fans though.

I wasn't sure, did I miss that? If these are customizable, then this case is back on the menu.

You did but no worries it's tough to tell with the accent in the photo but it does use the same system so you can get the wood accent if you want.
