This is pretty much a shitty version of the framework laptop. Yeah, it might be a little bit more open source but these arm chips are finicky, buggy and plainly too slow for any reasonable work.
If you want to replace parts, buy a framework. At least you get an actually usable device instead of spending all these resources on an expensive toy that you'll be bored and frustrated with after a few days.
- chrsw 3y agoI don't believe Framework's products are comparable to MNT's Reform. The Framework is mass produced. The Reform isn't, as far as I can tell. But there are other major differences, of course. The framework is designed to be as close as possible to a contemporary modern machine but also be more user serviceable. The Reform is first and foremost open, hack-able and designed to be completely understood by a small group of people. For the Reform, the schematics are available to anyone, or at least any user/customer. For the Framework it looks like the schematics are only available under NDA. https://knowledgebase.frame.work/availability-of-schematics-and-boardviews-BJMZ6EAu https://knowledgebase.frame.work/availability-of-schematics-... https://mntre.com/reform2/handbook/schematics.html https://mntre.com/reform2/handbook/schematics.html
