   "We would like to be all snarky and cynical about the new gadget, but in conscience, we can't: it genuinely does sound pretty good."

   We built something that even TheRegister likes. https://www.theregister.com/2023/07/21/framework_16in_laptop/

     @frameworkcomputer Hey guys, love your work! But I have to say that I'm a little bit miffed that you don't sell your laptops with Linux on them. I know you can buy with no OS and install it yourself, but why are you giving convenience to Windows users that you don't give to Linux users? There's a lot of people who would have no idea what to do with a laptop with no OS on it. This is also about visibility, lots of people don't even know there is an alternative to Windows. Please show that!

     @frameworkcomputer It's so strange that you use the Fedora and Ubuntu logos in your handle on here without selling machines with those on. Don't you think? I think at least. When we talk about the small Linux share the lack of hardware with Linux pre-installed vs the total dominance of pre-installed Windows machines often is one of the first things that comes up. Please think about the positive impact you could have!
