This laptop is getting a fair amount of coverage, but as far as I can tell it isn't anything new. It's a rebranded Clevo laptop shipped with Ubuntu, just like the System 76 Lemur.

Disclosure: I'm registered as a Sager reseller (another company selling Clevo laptops), but I'm not actively selling their products.

First I'd heard of Entroware. They seem to sell several more https://www.entroware.com/store/laptops and only ship to UK, IE, DE, FR, IT, ES (according to their site footer). How long have they been shipping Linux-preinstall laptops and how's their record for service/support and minimizing need for proprietary blobs?

I'm not sure. I hadn't heard of Entroware before. If the laptop has an Intel WiFi chip it should work out-of-the-box with distros running a recent Linux kernel. I ordered my laptop without an OS and have been running Arch on it for over a year.
