Loveeeee and so tempted by the new #Framework 13 Pro Laptop - it's literally upgraded from everything I love about them before, AND addressed all of the shortcomings they had, as someone spoiled by #Apple 's #MacBook Pros and such, including: haptic trackpad, nice screen, BEAUTIFUL KEYBOARD with no #Windows logo or cringey fonts/typography/legends, GREAT battery life (on #Intel at least?), BEAUTIFUL CNC-machined aluminium chassis in black, and all of the ports are #Thunderport/#USB4 capable with their trademark configurable expansion slots. That haptic trackpad is BIG for me, none of them cheapo Windows trackpads please. Lastly, ofc, it officially and proactively supports #Linux out of the box which is biiiig.
The only thing holding me back is the price, which honestly isn't that bad considering the amazing, niche thing you're getting (and my configuration was esp expensive bcos I NEED that 64GB of RAM on Linux, I know too well 32GB wouldn't cut it lol), and also the fact that they don't ship to Malaysia. I could ship it to SG as I've family members, friends, colleagues there but for wtv reason (even before shipping/duties, I think) my config cost ~2K MYR more vs their US pricing. I also have colleagues in the US that I could theoretically pre-order and send them to... but nah, I wouldn't wanna trouble them lol. I've long requested for Fw to ship their products here, but that was yeaaars ago and it hasn't happened so I wouldn't count on it. Same case with #Valve 😴
Anyway, this thing's gonna sell like hotcakes and I wish I could hop on it too :')
