The Framework 13, yes. I bought my wife one. I bought another for a cousin. My company has been deploying them for other users. They have been nothing but spectacular.

The Framework 16, it’s still early, but it’s been riddled with bugs. The latest driver pack from late April seems to have fixed most of the issues I’ve been having, so we’ll see, but based on my experience so far, I can’t recommend anyone buy it until the get a few more driver and BIOS patches out.

I was Batch 1 and mine works perfectly. I love it.

  Your Framework 16? That’s great! Mine had an issue where the GPU just disappeared until the BIOS updated. It’s been a few days now, and it seems to be rock solid. Most of my issues were GPU related.

Are you on Windows or Linux on the 16?

  Windows 11. I want to play games without having to think about how to get it to work.

    Just curious. Proton takes all of that effort out of the equation, plus I'm willing to bet there aren't as many driver problems, if there are any at all.

    Proton can make games from the windows store that I already own work on Linux? Proton can make games that are borked rated on protondb work?
    
    I love Linux as much as the next tech nerd, I have a SteamDeck that I essentially use as a laptop when away from home, and I tried dailying Manjaro on my main machine for a couple months. Proton doesn’t solve everything.
    
    I can totally understand running windows on your main gaming machine, as that’s what I do. I don’t like it, but all of my games work. I also don’t want to have to re-buy games on Steam that I own via the Windows store.
