a friend just told me about Framework laptops and it seems like a compelling philosophy of laptop design: it's modular and user-serviceable, and indeed they ship it to you in bits with a screwdriver š
Curious if anyone here has had any experience with them. Some reports on the internet that they have fan noise / temperature troubles?

in reply to Ben Millwood • •I've used them; they seem roughly on par with an 80th percentile laptop PC, physically/aesthetically. Definitely not as nice as a MacBook or Razer laptop, but similar to a nicer Dell.
Compared to other ideology-driven laptops I've used (System76, Purism), they're much much much nicer.
