All four ports support Thunderbolt 4 - if you scroll down to "Interfaces" on the product specs page there's a graphic showing everything that's supported.
nice! Thanks! I had no idea USB4 and Thunderbolt were equivalent.
It's so cool that every individual upgrade they did here can be hot-swapped back to the older designs. That's a huge extra lift that they didn't have to do. To be specific: There's a new lower chassis, and a new chassis top with haptic touchpad. On my older framework I could buy just the chassis top to get the new touchpad. Crazy that they could make that work. I also just really admire the CEO for doing these semi-s…
+1. The less-scripted plus the lack of the pretending-reality-distortion personality is such a breeze.

Don't forget literally all the battery values are specified as Windows 11.
Not literally all; they say > 7 days > Standby without charging > Wi-Fi connected on Ubuntu (I'm unimpressed with listing all the "active" battery life listings with Windows, mind; I just want us to be precise in our criticisms.)

Same, though the battery upgrade alone will be around $260 because of the new bottom cover, at that might just throw in the speaker upgrade as well for $19. Not sure if I even want a haptic touchpad at all.
Haptic trackpads are the secret sauce that make MacBooks so pleasant to use. You probably want one.

The new battery is physically larger, so the old bottom cannot accommodate it.
Oh right but if I want to keep everything but the chassis I can, correct ?

I don't know what to tell you. I'm running it on the desktop with a drawing tablet, Magic Trackpad and oodles of apps, and it's not noticeably different from the stability of iPadOS. My touchscreen laptop is closing in on being a decade old (i7 6600u) and the worst thing I can say about the experience is that it VSyncs down to 30fps during more taxing animations (just like my iPad does).
There is a whole section on touchscreen annoyances from the Linux Surface project: https://github.com/linux-surface/linux-surface/wiki/Installa... > Any gesture functionality is dependent on the software you are running. This includes both, the application (e.g. Firefox) and the desktop environment (e.g. GNOME). The driver can only provide a set of input coordinates to the applications. By default, the system will be…
Taking a quick look, all of the things they list are basically reiterating what I've already said vis-a-vis Wayland:
You should make sure that you are running a Wayland desktop session [...]
It is important, that your applications run on Wayland as well.Earlier quoted context omitted.

Not a huge fan of the "force touch" trackpads on newer macs, the old man yells at the clouds. In all seriousness though I have used a pre force touch MacBook not too long ago and I prefer that experience a lot over the new one I have from work. Though the larger size of these trackpads is something I really like and where neither the older MacBook nor the the current non-pro Framework 13 come close.
I’m happy to answer questions folks have around the product (later today).
Beautiful laptop and then they stick a tiny 13" screen on there, I don't get it. 14" is the perfect size. Guess it just isn't the one for me.
