Perhaps it's not updated yet, but I don't see AMD in that list.

#183I'm in the market for a new laptop soon and am considering a Framework one. Would the 13th gen or the AMD version be good enough for basic photo editing? My wife is starting to get interested in photography. It would be nice if this could be a shared machine that I'd use most of the time and she would use for photo editing. If photo editing was something she wanted to do frequently she could always get her own machin…
Pretty much anything from the last decade could handle "basic photo editing" from consumer cameras.

The customization goes further than just yes/no to the number pad. Looks like a whole "Input Module system" that could open up opportunities for different keyboard designs (DVORAK, various locales, maybe different switches?). I love this idea, excited to see what folks do with it. Makes me think of Apple's Touchbar nonsense -- why force a number pad, or a second touchscreen on folks who don't want one? Such a good it…
Trackpoint with physical mouse buttons... Just let me keep dreaming.
I wonder if we'll see a Kickstarter for it soon...

Came here to say the same thing. Having my old laptop board be a NUC for another screen somewhere seems like a good idea.
Already preordered the 13" AMD board knowing that my old mainboard is going straight into my arcade cabinet as soon as it's out of the laptop.

Why even try to use the hardware raid? I can't imagine it actually performs any better than mdraid, and with mdraid the drives are as portable as plain drives. You could destroy the special laptop and stick the drives into usb enclosures and access the array again on any other machine.
Tell me you work in ops with out saying you work in ops. :-) Btw, this is excellent advice. Funny story, I have a FreeNAS device and the motherboard died and I thought "Oh my, I need to bring my ZFS volumes up on another machine, but I didn't have another machine with 6 SATA bays! I ended up having the drives all sitting out on the workbench connected a mainboard with 8 SATA ports so that I could create an archive of…
It’s probably time for me to figure out converting over to software raid.
Thanks for the nudge.

#187I’m happy to answer questions that everyone has about what we announced! It may be a little while until I’m able to jump back on though.
* Is this an "egpu connected by a cable" situation, or something actually integrated into the laptop's body?
* What are realistic possibilities for how much gpu, and how much of a premium would it be over other laptop or desktop gpu's? Is this something you would be making, or third parties?

https://github.com/Lillecarl/nixos/blob/master/shitbox/disko... this is my declarative partitioning scheme, I use mdraid, LUKS, LVM and btrfs. I also mirror my bootloader so if one drive dies I can still boot :) Hardware raid is legacy :)

I've been wishing for something similar, I think it's a great opportunity for desktop-style arm computing to shine.
Already a thing? And is hardware the limiting thing here? Not the terrible arm OSes? https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2022/02/lenovo-announces-the...
