#3I just bought an iPad Pro. That sits on the tables fine with a flip case on it.
Also attracts zero attention by customs.

If only iPad Pro ran MacOS.

The video explains that he needs beefy specs for programming and video editing so he got the Ryzen 7 with 32 GB of ram which is hard to find in other "2-in-1" laptops or tablets like the Yoga 9i. Plus, due to wrist pain and stuff, the improved ergonomics from the many mounting options for his custom case makes sense.

#6One of the things I still think about doing is just removing the top screen of my framework and just using a pair of those AR glasses as its main monitor, keeping the bottom chassis as a keyboard/touchpad/mainboard. That's how I end up using my laptop at night anyway, this just avoids the awkward screen.
Or if I were to go a step further, retro-fit it into the a ThinkPad keyboard/trackpoint chassis...

#7Related: this "cyberdeck" project deserves to become a product, hopefully for sale one day at Framework's store.

I'm totally in love with the expansion cards model, but I'm not ready to spend so much money for a laptop I don't currently need as I'm still fine with my thinkpads, but as soon as they start dying (touches various things), I'll seriously consider getting a Framework.

#8I just made a thing for my thinkpad that slides up from the back with two 2k ipad screens so I can have the same ergonomic benefits this provides with the screen up high.
Cool project I might build one.

#9I love this kind of project as a side effect of Framework's work - the fact that you can separately buy all of the various components of a laptop at a reasonable price with no restrictions enables so many new creative use cases. I really like that people are starting to play with form factors like this - anything that pushes us towards more diversity and customizability in computing is great.

I've used the xReal glasses as a screen replacement and they're pretty good. They're not my first choice if I can set the computer on a surface and use the screen, but they're great for waiting areas without tables, or to watch something while laying down, which was nice when I was sick.
My friend says that when I just have the keyboard on my lap and the glasses on I look like a blind man on a computer, that's fine with me :-)
