A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

This will be my first Framework

Depending on how you treat it, it might also be your last. So far, Framework has offered upgrades to their existing customers so they don't have to buy a completely new notebook to upgrade.

Oh yeah, looking forward to hopefully many years of platform support. They'll obviously have to switch to different memory modules (as an example) at some point (CAMM should be next), but I hope they keep the board compatible with the case, modules, I/O and display for as long as anyhow possible.

I'm coming from a ThinkPad T490 and if that would've been a Framework which I could just upgrade from the i7 8565u to a Core Ultra or Ryzen 7000, I wouldn't need/want a new notebook and could simply upgrade.
