Alas my Surface Pro (running Linux) has shit the bed and I am not sure what to get, the Framework 12 or … 13pro or Tuxedo 13pro where my choices and run the 13 as a desktop via TB dock at home and retire my actual desktop (an older mini pc).
The issue for me is I travel 7 or 8 months a year, the other 4 or 5 months the laptop sits in the bag at home doing nothing, so a pumped up laptop with TB used for both, or a cheaper travel laptop that sits idle for long periods ?
That’s tricky! Both are fine.
I’d go for one good experience rather than one perfect and one mediocre and the additional pain of keeping both systems on par.
