[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] The impossible? Buy a laptop WITHOUT Microsoft Windows?

[Jon Dreyer]

Coincidentally, I did just that. A few folks recommended 
that I try a Framework <https://frame.work> laptop. I'll 
write more about it soon but I put the "kit" together in 
about a half hour (most of the time struggling with the tiny 
wifi antenna wires). Easily installed Ubuntu Linux. Now I'm 
in the process of moving my stuff over from my mac. First 
impressions are that it's a great little machine with 
replaceable parts from reputable manufacturers. Fits 
together nicely.

Mine's kind of insanely tricked out: 64G RAM, 4T SSD. $2636.
