Sounds like the dbrand top skin I ordered when I pre-ordered the laptop months ago will finally get used soon, lol. The package said āDo not foldā on it, so naturally, it was folded up and crammed in my mailbox. I stuck it between two boxes in my closet to flatten out and forgot all about it until a week or so ago and was like āOh, right. I bet itās as flat as itās going to get by now.ā
Iām guessing weāll start getting charged by the middle of next week and getting shipment notices by the end of next week, maybe? Weāll see. Funny how I can go months without thinking about it all that much, but now that itās only weeks away Iām suddenly growing impatient.

Now my problem is that I can remember that I wanted to put something on the same order as RAM and SSD, but I forgot what it was

Seems like batch 4 is getting into full swing. Got my email as well. Put in the order for all my bring my own parts so it will all be here by the time the laptop eventually arrives.
Kinda annoyed with myself because while I was waiting the price of the G.Skill RAM went up by $20.

Received the āpreparingā email yesterday and I am as excited as everyone else here!
I started ordering the missing parts now. Spent a lot of time hesitating and choosing what SSD and RAM to get, looking at the most expensive options, but there are just no good reviews of SSDs that would take into account all the power management features relevant for laptopsā¦ So I decided to embrace the DIY spirit, take it easy and instead find something good and reasonably priced on marketplaces and then, if needed, upgrade later ā itās Framework 
.
Current status:
- SSD: WD SN770 1Tb, brand new sealed => $35 + $5 shipping + $4 taxes - $10 discount (which I, for some reason had on this marketplace) = $34 total
- RAM: SK Hynix PC5-5600B 2Ć8Gb (exactly the one listed as kinda tested in the knowledge base) => $30 + $5 shipping + $3 taxes = $38 total
Now waiting for the sellers to ship them, I hope they donāt take too long and everything arrives before the laptopā¦
