Video Description
The Framework Laptop 16 is the kind of computer I've dreamed of for years. Powerful enough to handle my gaming and video/music production needs, light enough to actually be mobile, and FULLY modular and repairable. The @FrameworkComputer team has really swung for the fences with this rig and I've been daily driving it for the better part of a year. Join me on this (probably too) long, meandering exploration of the most ambitious computer I've ever used. Lastly, I have a Patreon page and there's ZERO pressure, but if you'd like to become a member (tiers start at $2/month) to help me cover the cost of beard oil, Taco Bell, and treats for Nova (she's obsessed with those peanut butter bones), I would be grateful. I get such a kick out of making this stuff and would love to do more of it. https://patreon.com/boeross?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLink 0:00 Intro 1:00 Who's Framework? 1:36 Repairable 2:17 Upgradeable 3:23 Modular 6:05 Build quality 7:13 Where it fits in the laptop landscape 9:00 Gaming performance 11:29 "And what is good, Phaedrus?" 12:00 Repairable at what cost? 13:25 Final thoughts 16:00 Thanks for watching!
