Who's the OEM for System76 laptops?


My laptop committed suicide by jumping off my desk and landing on my Hardwood floor it was a sad Wednesday that I'll keep marked on my calendar. Now that the mourning phase is over I need to get a new one and the obvious(to me)laptop is the Lemur. I'm not in any huge hurry being that I have my work MBP I can use to tide me over but I'd like to get something done this fall. The thing that makes me hesitate is the fact that I can't find the OEM's for the laptops. I'd like to be able to go to ebay and pick up new batteries and chargers and such after the model has been replaced. There doesn't seem to be any info that I can find online and I'm not going to pull the trigger if I can't find the things I'm looking outside of Colorado.

Anyone have a clue?

Never mind I just won a 1st gen Chromebook Pixel on the bay.

I like my old chromebook. It just works and works and works for the kind of user I am.

Maybe later on. You can find a I5 Lenovo with 16 gig of ram needing work like I did for 100 bucks like I did.

I really don't know what base components system76 uses in their gear. But

System76 dont actually make laptops, they just resell other peoples laptops (mainly clevo).

It looks to me like System76 and Sager/Clevo laptops might be manufactured at the same factory. A couple of links:
