How are they better than framework? Looks a worse product for much higher prices.
replyMNT is entirely open hardware and much more free-software-friendly, right? If you care about stuff like freedom and autonomy in computing, and you have the money to spend, the Reform seems like a far better product to me.
replyWhat part of framework is less open than MNT?
replyFramework is perhaps well-documented, but it's not open. There are only pinouts, partial schematics and some MCAD stuff published for extension development but no ECAD designs.
replyLots of components from third parties, starting with the processors they use (Intel/AMD vs ARM processors).
replyFramwork is usability and performance first, openness second. MNT is the other way around.
