Definitely. We have ISO keyboards tooled up and are finalizing the artwork for different languages for it.

Yes! We're hiring across a bunch of roles in development, marketing, operations, and more: https://jobs.frame.work We don't currently have anyone on the team in Canada, but we are definitely open to it for the right c

Yes, but we'll have to let them make their own review announcements.

When job offers were getting rescinded in summer 2020, we opened up an internship and brought in an awesome firmware intern. We didn't have the bandwidth this summer for interns (and the job market is much better), but it is something

We use M.2 2230 WiFi cards, with both PCI-e and CNVi routed to the socket. For the pre-built systems, we install an AX201 card. For DIY Edition, we offer AX210 or you can bring your own card.

Thanks! It turns out this was on our backlog, but we had deprioritized solving it. With the massive amount of traffic on the site today, the slowness makes it much easier to hit. We're reprioritizing fixing it.

Yes, absolutely, and we're really looking forward to seeing the ways people take advantage of that!

I don't believe we have yet, but one challenge is that chromium-ec as a whole is in the process of migrating to Zephyr. We'll be needing to move over as well.

We're currently shipping to the US and Canada. We're working on adding additional countries, and making sure we can offer proper support in addition to being able to ship the product there.

The housing is made of 50% post-consumer recycled aluminum. The plastic parts are on average 30% post-consumer recycled plastic. There's some more information about the PCI-e lanes here: https://community.frame.work/t&

You can use up to four displays simultaneously, so three external displays along with the internal display would work. You can connect monitors directly using USB-C (with DisplayPort Alt Mode), DisplayPort, or HDMI Expansion Cards, or you

The Framework Laptop DIY Edition ships without an OS license of any kind. If you want a pre-built Framework Laptop, that does include the cost of a Windows license. The DIY Edition is super easy to set up though: https://guides

Noted in other comments, but we have designed the mainboard to be replaceable and upgradeable by the end user to new CPU platforms. We haven't announced anything yet, but this is a core part of the design and architecture of the produ

I've been using it outdoors in the California sunshine. It goes up to 400 nit. It has an anti-glare coating, but it is still a normal glossy screen (meaning no matte layer added on top).

What helps us keep replacement parts available is that we'll be continuing to build new Framework Laptops with form-factor-compatible modules for the foreseeable future. That means we will still be manufacturing new batteries compatib

The pre-built versions ship with Windows 10. The Framework Laptop DIY Edition ships without an OS installed.

It actually would put us in a similar category to Thinkpads from the 2000's and early 2010's, but with modern hardware, a thin and light form factor, an upgradeable mainboard, and customizable ports with Expansion Cards!

@pabs3, there is actually a 4:3 13.3" e-ink panel that may be possible to fit, but it would be challenging to interface. On OLED, nothing we can share yet, but there are certainly benefits to OLED panels.

We're building our business model to align incentives around product longevity. We want as many people using our products for as long as they possibly can. As a company, we benefit from that by continuing to develop new modules and u

The cover that the keyboard and touchpad install into is the limiting factor. The tooling for that part is extremely expensive, so we only have one version of it. We have the ability to install ANSI, ISO, and JIS keyboard layouts with any

Excellent! Let us know how NixOS goes.

Yes, we would very much like to rely on the great distros that are already out there for now, working with them as needed to ensure compatibility (which we have already done with a handful).

It is technically possible, but the cost of custom tooling for it would be unfortunately be astronomical relative to the number that we could reasonably sell. At some point in the future as we continue to grow the Framework Laptop install

A touchpad with buttons is something that we have explored, and is in theory a replacement module we can create. Inserting a track point would be much more challenging from a cost and engineering feasibility standpoint. We may have undere

We use a BOE NE135FBM-N41 panel, which you may be able to find some profiles on from other notebooks. We haven't gotten a chance to generate profiles just yet ourselves.
