I have a Framework (@framework) 13 laptop and I love it. HOWEVER @SecritLyfe spent a big chunk of $$ on a Framework 16 and it has been a complete disaster. Long story short, it's been OOS since mid-June.

Finally got it back from service today and IT STILL DOESN'T WORK.

I cannot recommend them anymore. Glad mine is OK and hope it never breaks.

Buy a used eBay Dell for 1/8 the cost and just expect to replace it annually. Its a better deal.

The only problem I had was on day one, the Wi-Fi cables weren't routed properly around the hinge. I mean they were close, just a little out of place, enough to make the bezel not sit right. And it wasn't obvious how to they were supposed to go, me having never seen it before. But a little fiddling and I was up and running in minutes 🤷‍♂️ so I can't complain.
