Maybe for the future
, since they have full control of the project
, they can customize the experience specifically for their hardware
And it
's also giving them quite the marketing on the Linux community

If their software is good you would assume their hardware is also good

Rust have great things though
, I love their enums
, the type system in general
, and how the compiler catches a lot more errors than other languages
