Hello - power systems engineer here in Northern California. This is my first time owning a premium laptop that you can actually fix! Excited to be part of the community. I think Framework has a great idea and I’m excited to see what they come out with next.

Hello. I`ve already posted here several times but just found the welcome wagon lol.
I install and service eye-related medical equipment throughout the Midwest and some South.
My 5 yr old Pentium-powered Dell had seen better days. I also own a Surface Go for travel but not real happy with it. Then I bought a Yoga 6 like the day before I found Framework on the web. The Yoga had better specs on paper but I loved the Framework design so I really struggled. Finally I opted for the Framework and no looking back. So glad I did! Took it apart second day just because “I can”.
Look forward to this community “having my back” when in need, and hopefully I can bring some assistance along the way.

Hi! I’m a college psychology professor. I first learned about Framework last year in a video from Adam Savage’s Tested; I was really excited by the promise of being able to upgrade as needed to have a functional laptop for much longer than the Dells I’ve often owned. Just ordered today and excited to try it out.

Hello World! (heh… helloworld, funny) My name is Jason and I am a pastery chef. As a hobby I build computers. I was recently perusing the interwebs and came across an advert for an awsome diy laptop. I like to tinker so when I read the specs on the framework I was literally blown away! Now, I can hardly wait to get one! such a reasonable price too! When I got the full description of this laptops capabilities I felt like a kid and it was Christmas and my Birthday all in one! Now I cant wait to get one!

Hello, my name is Webb and I am from Washington, DC. As for PC’s and electronics I am a Linux/Arduino/Raspberry Pi user and my everyday machine for work and home use is a modded ThinkPad t440p (i7 4712, 16GB, 2x 500GB SSDs with 1080p IPS display). I enjoy tweaking and modifying my machines just as much as I enjoy using them for everyday workplace productivity.
My 13-year-old son told me about Framework, and I think the product is a perfect match for my needs and interests. It is also easier to lug around daily than an older ThinkPad.
I ordered an i5 DIY edition and have separately ordered the RAM and SSD. I plan on using Debian Linux and a Windows 10 VirtualBox guest os for my work-related Windows needs (proprietary Windows-based software). I hope to connect the laptop to an external 21:9 display to look at architectural plans and provide material solutions for custom millwork, windows and doors.
I am really looking forward to using the laptop everyday, and being a contributing member of the Framework community!

Hello,
My name is Michel, I am a developer, based in Brooklyn, New York. I went from Linux to Mac and now back to Linux. I like the idea of having a computer that I can upgrade and fix. I have ordered a DIY Framework and am waiting for it to arrive. In the meantime, I am reading the posts with great interest.
