My manager's company-issued HP EliteBook is actually the third device he's had during the last three years, as the previous units failed without warning. Nowadays if I don't see him on the standup I assume it's this problem again.

Kind of reminds me of the darkest days of MBPs and their failing keyboards.

My work laptop is doing ok so far with only minor annoyances like needing to reconnect peripherals after waking up the device, but that's it.

Meanwhile I cooked the screen in my Asus personal machine because it assumed that sleep = 100% CPU. Thermal paste was of course cooked as well, so I had to replace it.

All in all I'm glad that Framework expanded into my country recently. It's expensive for what it offers, but half the reason I'll be ordering one is spite.
