Also said colours don't directly show ABS's yellowing under sunlight that distinctively.</p><p>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 <em>"<a href="https://infosec.space/tags/ThinkPadnium" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ThinkPadnium</span></a>"</em> 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.</p><p>So yeah, I do want to see <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@frameworkcomputer" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>frameworkcomputer</span></a></span> release the <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/Framework12" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Framework12</span></a> and maybe some compact <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/Desktop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Desktop</span></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">#<span>Framework13</span></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">#<span>RaspberryPi</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/Pi400" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pi400</span></a> &amp; <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/Pi500" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pi500</span></a> units.
