I think I may be misremembering, but I got S3 working quite well in both Linux and Windows. This comment from Nirav Patel suggests it should work quite well (although unsupported by Intel as with all other modern Intel CPUs):
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31435132Right now, I have enough small but annoying hardware issues with my Framework laptop that I'm not bothering to improve anything for myself, either software or hardware related. I currently use it only as a desktop, and don't have anything but Windows installed at the moment.
In the past I've always recommended Framework, and I still feel I can't just leave my negative tone above sitting without further comment.
<Start of rant>
All the issues I've had would be trivial fixes, except that I'm not in a country that Framework ships to, and they can't send to anywhere outside that list, or allow freight-forwarding. Even for simple, inexpensive parts. I don't know the reason for this, but I do genuinely trust that it is because of a real problem for them, not just a lack of effort.
Excepting that, I've always had very high-quality, prompt responses. I'm currently waiting until Framework expand their supported countries, I move country again, or I can arrange to send parts to someone else I know who can forward parts on to me.
From soon after purchase, I was silently enduring a rattling fan, and the 1st gen 1TB expansion card overheating issue. Recently, the 1st-gen backup battery design issue has suddenly made itself known to me, and now I'm more pessimistic. It seems all it takes is moving to a non-supported country to turn what was designed to be a repairable laptop, into something less convenient to fix than my previous preferred choice (any of the more repairable, common enterprise laptops).
For anyone living in a supported country, I would still suggest a Framework laptop, but with slightly more hesitation than before.
