Looks cool, doesn’t it?
The Alpha release is approaching. We don’t have an exact release date yet, we only know it will be in late July. Still, a completely new desktop environment requires a new brand, and we now have it! The “O” represents Open Source and should resemble a display. The orange-red blip underneath instead represents a keyboard.
The fact that the keyboard is orange-red should communicate a keyboard with customized LEDs, “representing what’s possible with COSMIC”.

System76 decided to use this occasion to spin up a sale too: from June 26th to July 9th you’ll be able to have up to $200 off on selected devices, such as the Pangolin, Oryx Pro, Thelio Spark, and Thelio laptops and desktops. There are also discounts on keyboards and t-shirts – including those with the new COSMIC logo!
