   MNT Reform Next is getting a grid of screw threads in the bottom enclosure, inspired by the Peek array of the Novena laptop. this will allow people to more robustly mount internal expansions/customizations.

     @mntmn Was this design made using FreeCAD? I'm looking for an alternative to Fusion 360. Do you have any insights to share about your experience with FreeCAD for managing your MNT project?

     @mntmn
     I have been following your progress for a while. Love what you are doing. Now with the development of the Reform Next - I wonder if there any features that I would miss from "a normal laptop"? Like will suspend work? GPU acc. in Firefox?

     @b3nis firefox gpu accel works with the rk3588+panthor (panfrost) driver, yes. i use chromium though as it is faster. suspend does not currently work, but there is ongoing development on rk3588 drivers.
