Omg... got to actually TOUCH the new @frameworkcomputer 13 pro.. and y'all.. they NAILED THIS!

@falken @jfro @rasmus91 @frameworkcomputer My son has been dying to get my current Framework 13, so in a moment of weakness I might just order a whole new one and give him this one haha

That's justified, right? right?

[rasmus91@fosstodon.org]

@codemonkeymike @falken @jfro @frameworkcomputer i wish i had that kind of loose change lying around

But yeah, it does indeed!

@codemonkeymike @frameworkcomputer That keyboard theme though… it’s beautiful.

[codemonkeymike@fosstodon.org]

@joshthetechie @frameworkcomputer i know i love it.. they had the all black one too.. but i'd want this exact one.

But i'm telling you.. that trackpad is a masterpiece

[joshthetechie@fosstodon.org]

@codemonkeymike @frameworkcomputer I will agree that Apple has made the best trackpad. That one looks VERY nice.

@codemonkeymike @frameworkcomputer
Installed my first Linux, version .98, downloaded to 12 diskettes in 1993. I wrote the Datek CD driver for that pre-release. I have wiped Micro$haft off a few dozen systems I’ve bought over the years, replacing it with Red Hat, Debian, Mint, Free BSD, etc. I’m 83 years old. I thought maybe, just once, I would not have to deal with it, not have to spend hours downloading, verifying, installing…I though for ONCE somebody at framework would spare me that. Wrong.

@rasmus91 @falken @codemonkeymike @jfro @frameworkcomputer This is going to be possible - chassis requires the new keyboard,as it's a new product line. As with other product lines, we support it ongoing of course.

So old mainbboard, this chassis.

Folks need to be registering one's interest.

Framework

Framework (frame.work)

@matthartley @rasmus91 @falken @jfro @frameworkcomputer and move over the LCD? That's amazing.

I def filled out the interest form

[matthartley@fosstodon.org]

@codemonkeymike @rasmus91 @falken @jfro @frameworkcomputer Right on

[bifl_top@mastodon.social]

@codemonkeymike @frameworkcomputer Worth knowing: Framework's trackpad is swappable. You can replace just the pad itself without opening the chassis, and they sell replacements for about $30. Also keeps the whole thing repairable down the line if the mechanism ever needs work.

@Threadbane @codemonkeymike @frameworkcomputer that’s not a bait and switch. The announcements and ads are very clear that the Framework Laptop 13 Pro is the first Ubuntu Certified device and the first device to offer pre-installed Ubuntu. There’s no claim about the other devices. Linux support is outstanding on all of the devices but the pre-installed is only available for the 13 Pro for now and this is stated on the website.
