Super happy with the build, and it took a lot less time than I thought it would. Less of a build it yourself, and more of an, install a couple components. Now the hard part is, what OS do I go with? I love windows 10, but for one, they are getting rid of it soon, and two, windows has become a sucky company over the years. I’m thinking of Linux, but I have zero experience with that.

I have 0 experience with Linux myself, but I’m going to try it with this laptop for the same reason and to just feel like I have full ownership of this laptop.
Received 4 hours ago, overall I feel pretty good about it. Not as an elegant design as fw 13 though.
I have put Win10 on a 256GB 2230 drive that I picked up for a son on eBay, to use when I absolutely have to use windows because stuff won’t run on Linux using Wine. I have put Linux on a 4TB 2280 drive.
I guess I need to commit to an OS too. Kind of thinking I’ll run Windows 11 (yuck, but I can make it work for me with tweaks) & maybe have Linux on a second drive.
Happy for all those that got theirs so far! I just found out mine is stuck in customs in Alaska 
Same here
same ‘boat’
Same here. Stuck at clearance…
My order just shipped! FW16 + dGPU ordered on 23 April 2024 to Poland
Hooray! Mine has just been shipped, too!
Ordered on April 19th to UK.
Relief! Mine has finally been shipped. I was already worried that it would no longer be sent.
I thought i was the only one with the clearance delay
Mine stopped in Anchorage at about the same time. Wonder if they’re just swamped/seeing delays there generally. Well, my dreams of getting it this weekend seem far fetched, but at least it’s in the same country as me?.. 
Have it too sadly.
Sadly they only deliver on workdays.
I’m also showing a clearance delay in AK. Delivery exception is 2 days.
