### Best Repairable, Future-Proof
-Framework Linux
+
+If you want a laptop you can upgrade, Framework's Laptop is the best Linux rig for you. There are a few flavors available. I tested the second release of the 13-inch model (8/10, WIRED Recommends) and loved it. Right now you can pre-order an AMD Ryzen 7 (7040 series) system with 32,gigabytes of RAM, a 2-terabyte SSD, and whichever mix of ports suits your needs for around $1,400. That will ship with no operating system. When it arrives you can install Linux yourself (or opt to ship it with Windows if you need to dual boot). The only catch is that this config won't ship until Q3 2023. If you're okay with the previous gen chips you can grab on of those today.
+
+I tested Ubuntu, which Framework supports, and Arch Linux on the Framework I both worked great, though Framework does not officially support Arch. My only gripe using the Framework is my gripe about almost any Linux laptop: battery life could be better.
