    Everytime I see a video about Framework the more I’m tempted to buy one of their laptops, seems like a great company

      I just wish they accepted P.O.s / worked with popular public sector resellers. I’m intending on buying these for our school district at some point for student programs

      My Surface Laptop 4 is too new/great to swap out, but at some point I definitely want to hop on a SKU with a DGPU

      I’m planning on selling my MacBook and making the switch as soon as the AMD version is available. I’m excited to be able to support a company that values repairable hardware.

    If they assemble and then completely disassemble the DIY version of the laptop why does it cost less to buy if it requires extra labour?

      I wondered the same. I imagine when they finish designing the process it will actually be cheaper to manufacture.

        This makes a lot of sense. Seems like they’re putting the cart before the horse here, but its probably something something “we wanted to build the culture/experience before we built the processes”
