#2I like how he uses framework parts to build this. His builds at the end always look better than you expect

#3This looks like a cool desktop computer; not sure why he labels a computer explicitly designed to not be usable in your lap a "laptop".

He does address this exact concern in the video. He explains that laptops make ergonomic trade offs he isn’t amenable to it, so the whole point was to build a NON laptop.

Well. sure, but obviously still keeping the name "laptop" in the video title is, as always on the good old 'Tube, clickbait.
It's not, uh, intellectually honest to say "here's how to build a triple-screen laptop!" and then follow that up with "oh, btw, don't use laptops, desktop computers are better for you, see?".
All that said, I did enjoy the build and it's really cool to see both Framework parts being used as well as of course 3d printing. Nice.

Obviously he can build want he wants to the specifications he wants and even call it what he wants but if the purpose was to not build a laptop because he doesn’t like the form factor of a laptop why call it a laptop? It just doesn’t make sense.

#7If you don't know Matt's channel - give it a go. All the projects he does have a really, really high level of quality.

#8Framework should sell a fully integrated portable like this. I bet this would be popular with Framework's target market.

Actually, that frightens me. I know of another powerful, tested, and DIY friendly compact computer: the Raspberry Pi. The Pi got integrated into so many full fledged commercial products that it's lost its availability for hackers.
If the Framework mainboard becomes a Super-Pi, will Framework owners be able to get the spare parts that they were counting on?

My "laptop" only gets used on desks and my "desktop" sits under my table. Go figure..
He calls it a laptop since Framework calls its computers "laptops" and the whole setup is battery powered.
