This laptop was MADE to be HACKED!

worthless if most people cant GET IT...next.

It's amazing seeing the hackability of this design and I love the direction MNT and Framework are going. I have the funds for something like this but I'll admit - this isn't for me and I think that's okay. Much respect for the honest review! :)

It looks really cool, but I keep thinking I can buy 3-4 Thinkpads or this one. 🤷

Is it durable like a ThinkPad?

My wife left me

We have moddable laptops before custom mice.

I really like this computer!

too bad that it is not so affordable 😞 Good try, though

If you concern about security.. This is the solution.. Need a little adjustment

Love the idea, not crazy about the implementation. Go buy an old used workstation laptop, the Dell precision m4800 for example. Socketed CPU and GPU. Something I'd much prefer to a soc mainboard. And the battery uses 18650 cells, so you could replace them with modern ones and have better than original battery life! It's much cheaper and more powerful solution and definitely what I'd recommend who wants to hack hardware.

If you're going to make a computer like this... you have to give it TOTL specs. Otherwise, it's just a toy, and their target audience is never going to buy it.

why not get a Framework Laptop if you like ifix it

But does it run Windows 2000?

i couldnt care less about having a thin laptop tbh

good review ty

well i have a B490 lenovo pentium 4 laptop which i modded with an 13 3110 laptop processer from a 13 laptop which i had lying around with its graphics card done for
edit:- both were my fathers old work laptops

my thinkpad was cheaper lol

Can it be used with VisionFive 2?

This is a really cool idea.... but it feels completely worthless unless you have too much time and money on your hands. Any one of us who aren't buying MacBooks are probably buying used Thinkpads on eBay and loading them with Arch. I'm curious to see where all this goes, though.

I wanted to get this, but the cost of almost 2k is too high for the performance it's outputting. It's an amazing piece of hardware and it's amazing that you have access to upgrade it and change it to your liking. But it's too high of a price for that kind of freedom.

It is a cool project but honestly if you want an open source laptop you can get up to a thinkpad t440p/ t540p flash libreboot or coreboot, install everything you need and get the advantage of x86.

Well, that CPU swapping is a stretch, because You are swapping computer board.
And that whole “laptop”, is only enclosure for it, albeit with many features😅

Is it too late to cease Ai? Remember Hansel and Gretel? Being tricked? With irresistible goodies? Are we to be... laid off by Ai? Ai jobloss for everyone? Swell robotics doing everything? Or worse, imprisoned inside an... Ai new world order?

We won't be putting stickers on anything. What 'sticker' do you want? Hp? DELL? Apple? Or Microsoft? Spare me.

NICE lil unit but the price is a huge rip off

Os3 bro. Bangladesh

Arduino of laptops

I like it, finally not some scrap laptop. but something I put together for myself, I have old HP laptops more than 20 years old, disassembled or in one piece, they still had material.
This could be one of those, but it's priced in gold, and for many people, including me, that's unaffordable. Then you can buy a second hand business laptop with a replaceable memory NVME, SSD, Procesor. But the initiative, if you do not look at the price, especially the scythe is 10/10. Good luck and good hope to those who manage to buy the configuration that suits them.

Mmmm

Bruh.... it's HACKABLE....
you want an LED..... fricken add one....

Tak perlu keyboard rasanya. Tengah fikir.

ubuntu battery indicator bug

It's a ridiculous laptop. 40 years we're hearing about scalability for PCs : it simply doesn't exist. For keyboard, try a Thinkpad X220.

How much it is laptop

Holy damn, I was looking a laptop for Kali testing and this is exactly what I was looking for, thanks!

i love a chunky laptop. its the reason why i bought a toughbook.

40mm?
my cyberdeck is like 90mm thick, 40mm is a dream thickness

It may be thicker than the MacBook air, but try getting new replacement parts for the MacBook...

Этот ноутбук приближает Коммунизм

I stopped this video at ctrl not being where it is usually and you not explaining why, you just went to say what you had to do to be comfortable again (remapping) we want to know things about open source hardware...

No cfg ?

This is garbage,i thought it had some xeon type processor,turns out its a glorified rasberry pie.

the wifi issue is why some people install both gnome and KDE. just to avoid the bug.

The non-standard keyboard is such a plus for me. Standard keyboards are terribly designed, the only thing keeping them in existence is history and familiarity. Especially the spacebar, there's no reason for the spacebar to be that big, especially on a laptop where space is so scarce. The split spacebar was a smart decision.

Wow, Very Cool, but very expensive for me (and for average hungarian users)... :'(

$2000 for this is tooooooooo high

Most bulky smartphone by far

Trackball is amazing
