Interesting.

High-end 'upstream' Linux laptop plans to ship in April

Hmmm... Interesting indeed.

Too bad it doesn't come with a docking port. I like the plan look. It looks sturdy.

The suggested base price seems a little high for what you get.

...
You pay an "Earlier Bird" price of $1,649 for 4GB of RAM, 500GB hard drive, CD/DVD ROM and a 1920x1080 screen with AC adapter plug.

I like the "thumbs up" rabbit 01:42 into the video.

Pricing is always going to be 'high' on a Linux PC. It's purely a function of volume costing; there just isn't a large enough 'ready' market of consumers for Linux. Far to many consumers drank of, and continue to drink of, the 'Cool-Aid' Microsoft (primarily) produced and continues to produce. Unfortunately, people generally don't "trust" something that they are not required to pay for. Free is, consciously or unconsciously, equated with "cheap".
