You can see their store of replacement parts [[https:https://frame.work/marketplace/parts][here]] and it includes everything from the audio board to the hinge to the CPU heatsink and so on. The parts aren't even expensive either! I'd like to give some special credit to the charger. The power brick itself is entirely modular, with detachable wall power socket and USB-C cables, making the (cheap, fragile) cables replaceable without having to replace the (more expensive, durable) power brick. My enrapturement was short-lived, though, as after a quick assembly my new laptop would not boot up or charge. Not even the charging light would come on. After some searching we did find a [[https://guides.frame.work/Guide/Fully+Resetting+the+Mainboard+State/113][guide]] with instructions on how to fully power cycle the mainboard, and that resolved the issue. It seems the issue could potentially be caused by a dead CMOS battery. Regardless of what caused it, the fix was an obscure and somewhat dangerous fix for what I'd consider a big quality assurance failure. @@ -113,8 +113,4 @@ Personally, I'm getting a rare chance to critically examine all the little confi * Appendix B: lock.py #+INCLUDE: "~/Scripts/lock.py" src python -* TODO -remark on modularity of charger -remark on finish of modules - /last modified: {{{modified}}}/
