Got a preconfigured model, with AMD Ryzen 7840 and Windows 11 Pro so it can connect to our Active Directory domain. The only assembly was to insert the four expansion cards in the positions I wanted them.
LCD is crisp and bright, no complaints. Hinge is stiff and there's a bit of wobble if you tap the screen.
There's a physical switch to detach the webcam internally, ditto the microphone. Probably not a feature I'll use but it's nice they thought of it.
Keyboard has decent travel, no issues.
Trackpad is all right, not quite as nice as my MacBook, but it'll do.
It's fatter than my colleague's MacBook Air, but about as light.
The fan is pretty quiet and I struggled to make it even need to work.
It wasn't cheap. Hoping to offset this by not needing to replace entire laptops at once if something breaks.
@FeloniousPunk There’s apparently a heavier hinge you can buy, adding stability at the expense of one-handed opening. I don’t mind the trackpad, it’s functional, but not as glorious as on my Macs.
Right now I’m occasionally using an old Lenovo thinkpad and pine for my MacBook Pro because of the trackpad. I need to find a framework in the flesh to try it out. Thanks for the response!
I feel I saw someone somewhere suggest first putting clear contact across the laptop lid. And then applying stickers. So when your space fills up, you can start again and not lose the stickers of that era. So: all of them!
