That's correct ( did not check the numbers though :-) ) I guess that is
what happens when you are almost alone in the market.

But my point here was that you can go directly buying a Clevo or
whatever brand that is assembling a laptop making you choose the
hardware spares, and you should be able to get a good price, maybe not
like a "Mall ready" laptop, but at least competitive.

Still you don't get a full opensource bios.
