about us
in 2011 a group of friends set out to build a fast but affordable desktop computer. they
knew that they could not just install windows on some hardware and be done with it because
we all know windows is not fast at all actually when Microsoft is adding new software they do
not even delete the old software that it is replacing so there is peaces of software just sitting
there doing nothing. and secondly it was not open source and we what every thing at clone
to be open and available to the public. so the option that we were left with was linux because
of its build for to run on computers that were built in the 1990s and is also built to run on
todays fastest server even google used linux for there server. so we could use slower
hardware but the same but not better results thats why we used linux and thats is why linux
is so amazing

for hardware we wanted to keep costs down but not deliver a peace of junk no we had
to build some thing amazing that was not expensive. we also knew that we had to make it
look amazing. that is how we came up with the Clone one. the clone one is an affordable
computer that works t is very simple and very fast. we also used a very power efficient CPU
(the intel atom) and with linux on it is even more efficient. of corse we are always looking for
new ways to do thing and new computers that do them. we also wanted people to be able to
build a Clone them selves so we have published how to build a Clone on our web site so
people who we can not get a clone deviled can have a Clone.
we also build software by we make sure that all the software that we make must be
open source so we publish every thing that we do to "github" so the world can see it used it
and modify it. also being that building software at Clone is a collaborative effort the software
that we make is better because more people have seen it and eliminate more mistakes. we
also try to keep all of our software as efficient as our OS like SCOS a powerful calculator that
is only about 300 lines if code it takes up only 8 kb of space. so at clone we are completely
open and making hardware and software that just works.
Excellent work and determination! It takes a lot of knowledge and understanding to put a product like this together. I met you at the Westport Maker Faire.
