This is excellent news for the simple reason that the business goals are aligned for desktop linux. Nobody makes money on desktop linux and it's in a terrible state. Canonical gave up on this and is chasing snaps for servers, IoT, etc. RH also makes money only on servers. Other players are too small and won't have consistent revenue to invest any resources. If S76 becomes a successful h/w vendor, at least it is in their interest to make desktop suck less.
