![]() ![]() I wanted it to be ready to use for my run-of-the-mill needs.Īnd it wasn't, and that's why I wrote this review here. I paid more than twice as much as I ever have for a computer so that I would NOT have to help you develop the product, do quality control, or troubleshoot it. I just wanted a machine that would do those things without tracking me everywhere (Windows) and where I could fix pieces rather than having to replace the whole device if something broke or wore out. I'm not trying to do anything extraordinary or complicated. ![]() I'm doing basic things like research things in a web browser, scan documents with xsane, or occasionally record audio in Audacity. I'm really not trying to do anything extraordinary with the machine, so I thought it would be better just to spend the money and get one that works than it has been trying to do things like run Lubuntu on my old Chromebook Pixel. Linux support was touted in the website significantly. Reviews about Ubuntu support were glowing. I will try to do this as soon as I have the time.īut time is the main reason I bought the machine in the first place. I have no idea how this author's experience is so much better than mine unless they just haven't used it much yet, but I regret absolutely everything about the purchase of this machine and feel like I was sold a bill of goods by all the glowing positive reviews all over the internet. The whole screen shakes around when I type on it. This last point is pretty minor, but the hinges are floppy. I can turn them back on, but this is a ridiculous problem to have. And it manages to kill both wired and WiFi when it dies. But the Framework? Internet just stops working after half an hour. This dock supports my work Mac all work day every day with no issues at all, so it's not the dock's problem. I have a Belkin dock with Ethernet plugged into it, which is then plugged into my Framework's USB-C port. The internet connection also just turns off after about half an hour of use. If there's anything wrong with the file, this is the computer that's making the file poorly. It should be able to open a single one-page scanned document from my own scanner. Fan spins up like crazy, but as I mentioned, I have 64GB of RAM in this thing. The machine also freezes if I try to open a jpg or a PDF from the file explorer. But the battery still loses power even when the machine is completely powered down. I've resorted to turning the whole thing completely off after every use. Mine is configured with nearly identical specs (except that I have 64GB RAM) and is one of the worst purchases I've ever made.Įnabling deep sleep works fine waking from it is impossible. I am absolutely flummoxed by this review. ![]()
