From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Those are some... odd specs.
1TB NVME, OLED with an Intel N CPU?
the low power cpu bottleneck for nvme drives is pretty intense from what I know. These specs, to me, look like the equivalent of a tech youtuber just throwing together random hardware into a case to make a build video because it's a slow week for content.
Linus moment
Bleah, that Intel N CPU is going to ruin the experience.
You could have a decent experience. Take away the NVME, even with an m.2 ssd, and the oled and bring that price down into the 400-600 range.
Hell, put an arm CPU and keep those other specs and stay in that range
