paper_mintA chunky thinkpad-like framework
unknown1234_5I'd like a beefier fw16 chassis option to exist, but I would probably get the current one. also if they want to make it stronger like that it'll probably need to be less modular too, at least so far as the keyboard and touchpad area goes. would be nice to offer as an enterprise-focused thing though, like for companies to use as company laptops or in industrial areas.
Reduced modularity to appease corporate purchasers doesn’t really sit well with me. Kind of the opposite of their ethos.
Like a dark path that leads to profits over sustainability, where framework takes their momentum and pivots into just another laptop manufacturer.
No thanks. I love my fw13 just the way it is.
I meant reduced modularity for the sake of increased durability, because the keyboard and touchpad modules on the fw 16 are more liable to come loose and let dust in. the 13 would just need a new chassis, but I was talking about the 16.
