Framework will charge you extra if you choose to configure the laptop with Windows, while Ubuntu comes free, thanks to being open-source.Jack Goodall (PC Guide)

in reply to giacomo • • •The chassis is the only real difference. The boards are all compatible. ~~The core 300 series Intel board might be exclusive to it for now, but they said it's compatible with the old chassis so it's just that they just don't offer the board separately yet.~~ No wait they have a listing for it so I'm just blind. frame.work/products/laptop13pr…
Did they ever post sales figures for no OS vs Windows? You can't assume no OS = Linux, but considering the target demographic I bet 80% of them planned on using Linux on it.

in reply to scytale • • •i had a whinge in the comment section of a recent ArsTechnica article where they reviewed a bunch of Laptops and not one from Framework or Tuxedo haha
I have my eye on a Framework Pro 13 but really don't need it, i mostly desktop. I don't Laptop much and just use an old MS Surgace Pro7+ with LMDE installed.

in reply to inari • • •I'm so happy Framework appears to be doing well.
I've already replaced the keyboard of my 5yo OG 13 and plan to Frankenstein this thing as long as I can. I secretly hope the mainboard fails so I'm forced to upgrade.
Maybe after RAM prices recover...
