Right. I was more asking if the OP had any complaints, even minor. Or anything that makes framework standing out except the obvious unique aspects of repairability, extensibility, customization. I'm already clearly sold on that :D

I've been disappointed by them and as you can tell I'm not the kind of person to be married with a brand :D I may go back to them one day if there's really one machine I want. Until then I'll stay away from them. Also I really would like to support a company with a better philosophy (from my POV).
Any more details? ;)
That's interesting... I was not aware of that. Another more element to add to my future decision ^^
Thanks but I've already limited my choice to Framework, Starlab, Purism, and System76 as mentioned beside the title of this post.
I didn't think about that. If the usual shipping delay is reasonable then I feel better.
They're unfortunately harder to find in the wild than pokemons 😂 Have you experienced long delivery time as mentioned above?
Have you looked at KISS? Extremely lightweight and customizable. You can go from the most minimalist approach with text only and selection of apps to show to crash things like visual effects and icons for every single installed app.
If that's something usual I'll definitely avoid Framework. When I order a laptop it's because I need a replacement very quickly for work.
Thanks for the tip. I know a lot of people are going for Thinkpads and you're specific recommendation may seem interesting but I'd like to support other companies like the ones I bought from so far (Toshiba, Lenovo, Dell, Vaio, Acer, PB, Razer) and I'd also like to build my own laptop from the start.
The modularity, repairability, and price for specs are what attracts me compared to the other companies mentioned in this post.
So far this is really what makes me leaning toward Framework. But you know, when something seems too good to be true... If Framework is as perfect as it seems to be I can't wait for the need of a new laptop :D
