Only reason I didn’t switch yet was that my 6 years old Laptop still holds perfectly well and it would be counter productive to just change to a new device for no reason but the brand and that it is new
Here’s hoping this helps with getting a thinkpad keyboard into one of these things, I love my t420 to bits but sooner or later I’d like something a bit more efficient
I went with a Thinkpad for my most recent upgrade but I really, really wanted a Framework. If there was a straightforward trackpoint keyboard kit available for the Framework I’d be all in next round. There’s no love lost between Lenovo and I at this point.
This ThinkPad keyboard project for the Framework Laptop is worth keeping an eye on.
Hot sauce! I didn’t know about that. Gonna follow that thread for sure. A laptop with good Linux support, choice of CPU, trackpoint that’s upgradeable and and supports hot pluggable hackable modules! This is the future I want to be in!
Fingers crossed for a touchpad with physical buttons.
Physical buttons is so 2010

While losing money from people who didn’t buy frames manufactured by them, yes. That’s the point of open source, to let the community have ownership of the design and to make your business model less reliant on intellectual property.
