Framework's Laptop 12 preorders see Fedora outselling Windows by over 10 to 1, and it makes a lot of sense
It may not be the "year of Linux" yet, but it's still cool to see Fedora succeed.
Framework's Laptop 12 has seen a significant surge in preorders, with the Fedora version outselling the Windows version by over 10 to 1. This unexpected trend has been confirmed by the company. According to XDA Developers, this outcome makes sense when considering the context.
The Laptop 12 is a new offering from Framework, and the preorder numbers suggest a strong preference for the Linux-based Fedora version over the Windows version. Tom's Hardware does not provide any information about Framework's Laptop 12, but it does discuss Dell's XPS 13, which was launched recently.
The XPS 13 features a redesigned chassis and is available with 8GB or 16GB of RAM, both options having 512GB of SSD storage and an Intel Series 3 Core 5 320 CPU. However, this information does not relate to Framework's Laptop 12 preorder numbers.
