I made the jump in mid 2023 to Framework laptops and thought people might want to know the good, the bad, and the oh my god why do we need another picture of the mainboard to do an RMA??? (Though I do have to give credit here, it's gotten a lot better - and I stand by my follow up)
A few notes - I will be fairly nonspecific on things for my anonymity:
- I have a userbase of 300+, and about 200ish Frameworks deployed. Formerly a dell shop.
- Userbase is all over the country, I could have users in any of the 50 states at any given , usually some in at least 35+
- Almost entirely Intel i7-1360P and Core Ultra Series 1 Ultra 7 155H (I use the only 13 AMD I bought, and I have 1 16 in the environment)
- Environment app usage is largely browser based apps, office apps, and Bluebeam. Occasional user has some light CAD usage.
- Also just because I love him u/frameworkforbusiness doesn't know I'm posting this, and might have a heart attack, but we're homies now <3
So for those who've wondered what the switch has been like, AMA
