@FireTower @otter I have 2 USB-A adaptors, because I use an external CD drive with additional USB-A cable to deliver power. Same for the external DVD drive.

I also have a 2nd (spare) USB-C in my bag if I need it, or in case one gets damaged.

@Darkbug @Feeee23 My FW13 is happy on 22.04 LTS, and 24 is too recent for me. After getting bitten by (what looks like) an optimisation bug with gcc -O3 in Fedora 40, I'm back on Ubuntu, and holding back with 22.04 LTS for a while longer :-)

@OsrsNeedsF2P Or French, or Dutch.

@OsrsNeedsF2P Again, in English please...

@redd Fedora 39 here on an Intel FW13. It's my first Linux-only hardware and I only run Windoze (in a Boxes VM) for one application.

No regrets.

Minor niggles only, one of them probably caused by me being hasty. It has never failed to do my usual (edit/compile/debug)

I never got VMware networking right (possibly due to lack of experience with VMware), so I stick with Boxes.

And I installed Win10 on a spare SSD, just to set up the fingerprint sensor. I've not booted that SSD since then.

@lemmytellyousomething I got the FW 13 DIY with a small SSD, then upgraded to 4TB from somewhere else.

@sarmale @mineapple The only change I'd like to see is replaceable key caps on the FW13, so I can have a penguin (Tux) instead of a 'Windows' key.

For now I use a penguin sticker :-)

Why is the US <Enter> so small? ;-)

Several countries have <Enter> taller, and wider at the top.

My UK keyboard is the same, and I'm probably too old to adapt to a smaller <Enter> and having the | \ @ ~ and # in (what I see as) the wrong places :-)

@framework I've just had a reply to my support ticket confirming it's been escalated to their logistics team.

Maybe now I'll get some info :-)

I hope it's insured for this!
