"But they’ll be reserved for premium models starting at $999."

Translation: "We want to start with the data of people that can spend, then we'll move to the rest".

The last Windows computer in my house was my wife's, and she's been extremely happy on Fedora Gnome for the last couple of months, asking me why I didn't tell her about it before (I did, lol).

my girlfriends like fedora gnome too. I do all the technical stuff anyway so she really doesn't have know to know that much about the os she uses

Same here. The only tweak I had to do was set up Flameshot, my wife finds Gnome's screen shot app lacking, and so do I.

The only thing we run different is office. I set her up with OnlyOffice because of the similarities with MS office, but I prefer libreoffice.

TIL fedora gnome is the girlfriends choice.
