And, from my understanding, Framework has sent over a device to make this possible.
However, I don't know if it will ever get official support. Though, surely, I hope it will.
I liked this style of ad. Just sitting down and explaining all the interesting features and engineering improvements.
The exiting part will be if they launch a passive cooled arm based laptop.
I don't even need passively cooled, solid state airjet cooling would be perfect for a <20W arm machine.
This was my first thought: when will we get an arm based framework laptop?
Won't this essentially make it a Chromebook?
AFAIK, there is no reasonable desktop CPU that is not either very underpowered compared to alternatives or a Mac. Wouldn't framework need to work with a partner to design a whole desktop class of CPU like apple did?
Then after that hurdle, then you are limited to a much smaller selection of apps due to architecture.
Maybe thats against upgradeability. Since its system on chip, you won't be able to upgrade ram or cpu seperatelt
I preordered the new screen for my 2nd-gen. This is all great news!
Support for coreboot can't come soon enough. My fingers are already tingling in excitement for that day.
Until then
Also adding the not available Purism Librem Laptop lol.
Or Thinkpads up to T430, they work pretty okay.
Or a ton of Chromebooks (with lots of drawbacks like bad keyboard, underpowered, low storage, bad repairability)
Is it even coming? They don't seem very interested
We actually already have an experimental coreboot port on the FW 13 AMD.
