As this is my second Framework laptop, I previously purchased more Expansion Cards.

  • Display Port - 2
  • HDMI Port - 2
  • USB A - 1
  • Micro SD - 1
  • 1 TB card - 2
  • USB C - 1

For the Framework 12-Gen, I started with the USB-A card to start the install of Pop!_OS (do not forget to turn of Secure Boot as the OS does not support it yet).

I switch to the Display Port once the NVMe has the OS installed. As my monitor supports DisplayPort Alt Mode, I have to decided if I want to switch out the DisplayPort with USB C. (I am thinking about eGPU, but am researching on this community website first).

For anyone interested on what I will use my ol’ Framework 11-Gen, the unit is being used with a 10GbE network port within my lab environment. I will use it by connecting via X2go.

Is it damaged? Or it was placed incorrectly?

Very nice - didn’t even notice the butterfly before!

I noticed they didn’t have the framework as a standard size. Did you do a custom size or pick another brand/model?

Hard to say, although I don’t see any damage visually so I assume it’s a factory defect because I’m not the only one who experienced this:

I am in the same boat - I could literally ride a bike there! Meanwhile, I can’t stop pushing that update button in the FedEx app!

Muh FrameWork is out for delivery today, could literally walk to the depot to get it, although I should probably be expecting it within the next few hours.

Looks you’ll have yours shortly before mine arrives. Mine is scheduled for delivery today, and appears to be at my local FedEx hub.

Enjoy!! What OS are you going with? Hope you have your install media ready

Honestly, i’m still not even sure! It’s tied between Manjaro and Ubuntu. I’m actually on my desktop right now pondering which to get ready :rofl:

What about yourself?

I’m a long time Windows fan, and also use Ubuntu regularly but for my Framework I’ve decided to try something different and will be installing Fedora 36.

I’ve been trying out various distros, including Ubuntu Budgie and Fedora 36, in virtual machines while I’ve been waiting and Fedora is the one I’ve enjoyed the most

Glad to see everyone starting to get theirs in. After a weekend of usage, I freaking love this laptop. It is not perfect by any stretch, but it really is a super slick device. Glad to support the cause!!!
