Kevin Karhan :verified:<a href="https://mastodon.social/@bastetfurry" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@bastetfurry</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/@janet_catcus" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@janet_catcus</a> the only thing cooler would be if they did a <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/transparent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#transparent</a> version, but I also know why they didn't and instead chose said muted colour pallet: As those are easily sourceable, child-safe (if not medical- or food-grade), and available as recycling plastics. Also said colours don't directly show ABS's yellowing under sunlight that distinctively.Keeping costs down, compared to the high prices of optically clear, non-discoloured plastic ehich also tends to be more brittle, and also may not be an option due to the way they pulled a "<a href="https://infosec.space/tags/ThinkPadnium" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ThinkPadnium</a>" style metal reinforcement of the chassis, as they clearly worked out a mix of elastic deformation (TPU), lightweight flexing and stiffening is the way to make a machine that is more forgiving in terms of abuse without designing it to be an unwieldy, heavy industrial appliance.So yeah, I do want to see <a href="https://fosstodon.org/@frameworkcomputer" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@frameworkcomputer</a> release the <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/Framework12" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Framework12</a> and maybe some compact <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/Desktop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Desktop</a> case that is essentially allowing to shove a Framework 12 or <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/Framework13" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Framework13</a> mainboard and keyboard in and have a low-footprint unit like the <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/RaspberryPi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RaspberryPi</a> <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/Pi400" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Pi400</a> & <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/Pi500" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Pi500</a> units. Or just some case one can bolt onto <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/VESA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#VESA</a> mounts at a screen (similar to a <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/ThinkStation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ThinkStation</a> Tiny / <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/ThinkCentre" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ThinkCentre</a> Tiny) and use those for <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/Classrooms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Classrooms</a>.I hope they have some nice <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/Stylus" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Stylus</a> slot & lanyard option similar to the <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/X230Tablet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#X230Tablet</a> I still daily-drive today.
