That's one way of looking at it.
It's in a different category of its own - Linux laptops. Same reason you don't compare macs to windows pcs - even if the internals come from the same manufacturer.

Isn't this the rebranded Elitebook 845 G8? Maybe there's a minor change here and there? Any reason to buy this when the G9 is right there?

IIRC they collaborated with System76 so all the hardware is validated and the screen is high nit
Otherwise yeah it's just a business laptop

I'm new to HP and was almost snagged by this Dev One? Saw your comment and searched in amazon for Elitebook g9 all saw was quite a bit more expensive than this Dev One thing.
Can you give me a hint were to look to get a similarly priced g9?
Thanks

***** Update *******
So g9 seems to be 50% pricier than this.
If we come down to g8 the only thing i could find on amazon this for this price is a refurbished model g8 for $20 more and a much darker screen. The g9's here in Slickdeals are for HP employees or EDU or they are 30%+ more pricey and the screens are darker.
The way i found this Dev One was i was googling "laptops 1000 nits" as i like to work outside when i can.
If anyone can suggest an alternative to what the op listed with 1000 nits screen for same price range (it's actually $880 directly from HPDevOne.com) please share.
Before coming here to see if it was on Slickdeals i was already disappointed it only has pcie 3 but I'm willing to endure if i cannot find another bright laptop in this range.


Thanks!
