Re: Upcoming release of a Kubuntu-branded laptop

 

Hello everyone

Just following up on Valories introduction.
Please do drop me a line if you have any questions.

It would be really awesome if we could work together, on the promotion. We
have review units shipping to key press contacts, with launch announcements
embargoed until around 15th of January.

Best regards
Rick
