Looks like the very early Batch 5 i5s are starting to ship. I ordered an i5 DIY on Sept 28th (barely missed Batch 4! I know 
) and I got the “Preparing to Ship” today
My config: i5 DIY, 2x16GB DDR4 (originally did 1x32GB but Framework support made it quick and easy to change my mind- thanks guys!), 2 USB-A, 2 USB-C, 1 HDMI, regular non-vPro Wifi
For anyone who cares: BYO SSD (2TB Hynix P31 Gold), BYO power adapter, grey market Win10 Pro OEM but will probably dual boot some flavor of Linux alongside it.
Can’t wait!!!

Call your bank y’all. They will put a note on your file that you do expect that transaction and let it through when the system triggers.
Card has been charged, preparing to ship e-mail has been received. Good day.

Another Batch-Fiver here. I placed my order for a DIY Framework on November 6th.
Intel Core i7-1165G7
Intel Wi-Fi 6E AX210 No vPro
1TB - WD_BLACK™ SN850 NVMe
32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR4-3200
Power Adapter - US/Canada
USB-A Expansion Card x 3
USB-C Expansion Card x 1
HDMI Expansion Card x 1
I’d love to have this thing by Thanksgiving, but I’ll be happy enough to get it by the end of the year. Ideally, it’ll run Linux Mint (same as my desktop machine), but I may switch to Ubuntu if I have too much trouble with Mint.
It’s replacing a Thinkpad X140e that’s slowly being strangled to death by Windows updates. I’m hoping that will be the last Windows machine I ever own (though I still have to put up with it on my work laptop).

I got my batch 5(DIY) in last night! I’m running into an issue though where keyboard isn’t working. I’ve followed the keyboard-not-working guide but no luck. I reached out to support, so hopefully I can get some more ways of triaging/replacing the keyboard.
Everything else is solid though! Was able to install Windows using an external keyboard. My plan is to dual boot with Ubuntu in the afternoon.

I find myself opening my inbox and hitting ‘F5’ far more often than I care to admit.
Still waiting for any news beyond the first email.
The good news is another component I ordered elsewhere was delayed and won’t be arriving until next week, so my lack of laptop right now doesn’t really matter.

Just ordered mine (i5, 16GB, 1TB SSD, 1TB expansion) today along with a Razer Core X eGPU enclosure, hoping it arrives in November!
I’ve been eyeing Framework since before batch 1 and wanting a laptop for software development work, but couldn’t really justify it until earlier this week when my desktop (still running Ivy Bridge lmao) finally started showing signs of mortality. It randomly clicked off during use and when I tried to turn it back on it’d sit there for 10 seconds and shut back off. It booted up a day later when I tried again, but it’s provided close to a decade of hard service and I think it’s earned itself a good retirement.
Happy to join the gang!

I just ordered the i5 option late last night after my laptop fried itself, and it looks like I was just in time because i5 orders are now in batch 6! I guess this means mine won’t get here till late November at the earliest 
Good thing I have a desktop too.
