I've followed the development of the Framework laptops. They are cool for sure.

@voltronic

Oh, ok. Sorry if that got to be too much. But yes. Definitely a contender for my next laptop.

No, not at all. If I was looking for a replacement for my main system, it would be in the running. Right now I'm looking for something relatively cheap but upgradable that can be a second system so I don't have to go downstairs to my desktop for everything.

@voltronic

Well the framework starts at like $1300, dunno how a Lenovo that hits your specs stacks up in price, tho.

Oh shit you were looking at used, weren’t you?

Welp that changes the price range estimate I was operating with lol

Unless you need relatively powerful graphics or a numpad, maybe one of those earlier model frameworks might work. Might be able to find one on eBay?

@voltronic

I wish my life was stable enough and I had enough square footage for a desktop 🫠😭

That’s why I have such a monstrous laptop. Thing is fuckin huge. If I didn’t grow up lugging giant textbooks and giant camping backpacks, I don’t think I’d be able to tolerate the weight.

So it’s mostly used as a desktop, except my “desk” is one of those breakfast in bed lap-tables :P My actual desk is currently buried under boxes of wedding decorations.

So a framework would be nice… ->

@voltronic

Either as a replacement when my current laptop inevitably dies, or as my actual portable laptop when I get enough space and stability to refuse to use my desk as a shelf.
