The Librem 16 starts at $2,899 for the Base configuration with 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage. The Plus model costs $4,199 with 32 GB of RAM and 2 TB of storage, while the Max configuration reaches $9,799 with 64 GB of RAM and 16 TB of storage. A custom build option is also available, starting at $2,870.

Wow. At those price points I'm going to need it to bring more to the table than just privacy assurances. These things would need battery life that lasts for weeks without a recharge.

Or you could buy a Starlabs Starfighter with a slightly worse CPU in the base config, double the RAM and a far better display for $1000 less. Also comes with coreboot.
