Got an idea for next month's banner?
I've been running the same Framework laptop for years and years, after using YouShop to freight forward it. It is their original model, when there was only one option. At a certain point they started blocking people freight forwarding, and I haven't been able to get replacement parts.
This morning I got an email telling me they are finally supporting NZ, so I can get those parts! And apparently they are announcing their next gen stuff in a couple of weeks.
Oooh. Interesting. I've been hoping to have them available here.
I have some ports wearing out (from kids tripping on the cable) plus the screen bezel has been broken for a long time. Will be nice to get some new bits! Plus get some of the port options that weren't available when I got mine, like SD card reader or ethernet port.
I also wanted to upgrade the guts some time back but I'll hold out for this announcement and see what the new stuff looks like (or get a discount on the old stuff).
Then I'll have yet another machine to use as a server (the old mainboard) 😅
