   Preordered a framework (16"). Hopefully this pig I'm using will last until they ship (est. Q1)

     @thatguyoverthere I never would have thought you were talking about a laptop.

     @kekkerel they are pretty nice. Most attractive feature is that they are actually service-able. I've been eyeing them up for a while. I had a spare laptop that I was planning to move to, but I ended up giving it to my daughter and now I have an excuse.

     @thatguyoverthere I've never had a laptop for longer than two years. Precisely the concern you mentioned. I hope it works out well for you.

     @kekkerel man this thing is around a decade old at this point. I maxed out the memory on the board and slapped an ssd in which really kicked up the performance quite a bit, but there are a lot of things I'd like to do these days that it just isn't cut out for. It was a workhorse when I got it.

     @kekkerel wouldn't you know it, the day after I reserved my framework my cooling fan crapped out and the thing won't boot.

     @kekkerel I found a fan for 10 bucks so it's not dead yet. Hopefully we can stretch it out a few more months.

     @thatguyoverthere 10 years is a pretty good run though. My laptops have always burned out far faster than that.
