Why not a new thread?..... makes sense to me.

I may well have to sell mine since I have virtually no time to use it. Might be a good way to see that "used" ones get good homes?

Just a thought.. :-)

HI bcnaz!
Great to see you!! :-)
Absolutely NOT sure I want to sell my PBP yet, just considering it.
I truly like it, but am chronically short of time. Like now....:-(
But My Friend, don't give up on me yet!! :-)
Take Care!! :-)

Received my ANSI PBP just a couple of hours ago, and so far I'm loving it. The keyboard feel is great and everything worked well out of the box. All of the updates went smoothly except updating the touchpad and keyboard firmware. I think I applied the firmware for the ISO keyboard on accident so now all of the key mappings seem off. The touchpad seemed more responsive afterwards, but still not perfect (two finger tap for right click is inconsistently recognized and fine movements are difficult). Despite those issues which I'm confident I can resolve, I'm impressed by and excited use this new machine!

Yes ANSI users, please do not update the KB/Trackpad FW yet. I'll look into the ANSI FW situation next week. Should have thought about this ... this mistake is on me.
You can find me on IRC, Discord and Twitter

I am waiting for my ANSI PBP,  and Brave Heart to hopefully arrive soon.
  I have a few family members down in your state, bit warmer there, kinda cooler than I prefer here now.

I just received my PBP yesterday and have run into a slight issue that I am confused about. I am admittedly completely new to and unfamiliar with linux. After following the instructions to change the default rock username and password I successfully changed both, however I started receiving an error message every time I boot. "Configured directory for incoming files does not exist. Please make sure that directory "/home/rock" exists or configure it with blueman-services" Does anyone know what is still looking for the old name of the directory or how to fix this other than just changing the name back to rock?
