These Snapdragon X processors have some drama around not having decent Linux support, right?
EDIT: Sorry, not SnapdragonX - apparently I can't read.
Also, who is "MetaComputing" and can I trust them with my money? Something about the big "Web 3 Integrated Devices" branding on their landing page makes me less than enthusiastic. Otherwise I'd be hovering over 'buy'
They are selling a configuration that costs $810.00 on Framework's website for only $549.00. Zero actual info on the about page or Google. I would treat it with suspicion at best.
They're just selling the motherboard on its own, not a whole laptop. To make if a complete system, you'd have to buy a laptop chassis from Framework's parts site and install the motherboard yourself.
You can get a whole laptop if you purchase the "Pro" option that comes with the Framework 13 chassis: https://metacomputing.io/products/metacomputing-arm-aipc
They're 8x A720 + 4x M520, not Snapdragon X.
This isn't a Snapdragon though.
Oh, crap, guess it helps if I read next time.
