As I have said before, I have been gifted Framework 12 LT (13th Gen. Intel Core), but I hate tablet sized screens. Is there any way to get Framework working on a LT sized Screen?
My last Dell Screen/monitor was 15” Length X 9” Width, that for me is a normal LT sized Screen/monitor.
Is my only option to return & spend extra amount money to upgrade to a bigger screened Framework LT? That case I do not have that sort of money, guess just keep the ridiculous tablet sized screens.

I do not understand why if Framework ships to my location or not matters (to finding a way to have a bigger than tablet sized screen/monitor), but yes, all major shipping companies will deliver to my home.

Can you give is a lot more info.

Such as is it a framework 13? 12? 16?

Are you located in an area that framework ships to?

What do you consider a normal sized screen?

What do you consider a laptop sized screen?

Can you try to avoid shorthand to help people understand what you're talking about?

You can just sell it and get something you actually want. Retrofitting a gift seems more work than it's worth.

Since OP wanted to focus their responses to defending their strange short hand acronyms over actually providing us information. I'm out. Not worth my time.

Good luck in whatever you decide.

    With all due respect, Really? Is this a joke or just post to clutter? Almost everyone knows that means L.ap T.op? No disrespect

    Some acronyms are regional. Maybe it's very common where you live, but uncommon elsewhere

    Some other things I considered

    • Lite
    • Long Term (like LTS)
    • some limited edition model I wasn't familiar with

    I would have asked to clarify as well

    It is USA English widely known, not regional, within the USA English.

    No it isn't, it's neither on wiktionary nor on UrbanDicitonary (and yes I've scrolled through 14 pages of stupid jokes for that), which means it's not in common usage at all, likely anywhere.

    I think I've seen it on forums and stuff when I was a younging, but that was a long time ago and that time is gone. Get with the times, you are asking for help, it is your job to be understood.

    If the screen is too small, I think your only options are returning it and getting a bigger laptop or just sticking with that and using a dock with a monitor

    There are portable external monitors that you can use, but nothing as elegant as a single unit laptop
