Default operating system
Lab Computer 00 arrives with Omarchy installed. The owner creates the account and encryption password during first boot.
Software / Omarchy
Lab Computer 00 ships with Omarchy.
Omarchy is a Linux environment built on Arch Linux, Hyprland, and Quickshell. We use it because it is fast, opinionated, and open to contribution.
Why Omarchy
Good defaults make Linux easier to use.
Omarchy chooses the window manager, shell, key bindings, applications, and update path. Owners can change any of it, but they do not have to assemble a desktop before using the computer.
Lab US can test one known configuration, fix hardware issues against it, and publish accurate setup and support documentation.
Our support
We ship it, test it, and contribute fixes.
Test the full machine
We verify startup, sleep, networking, graphics, audio, ports, and updates on the hardware we sell.
Send useful work upstream
We report bugs and contribute documentation or code when a fix also helps other Omarchy users.
The relationship
Lab US and Omarchy are independent projects.
Lab US is an independent company. We are not the creator, owner, or official representative of Omarchy, and this page does not imply a formal partnership.
We install Omarchy, test it on our hardware, link to its original documentation, and contribute when we can.
