  Like what, specifically, instead of this?

    Lol. Are you nuts? Am I really supposed to sit here and list off what makes a great product for a great price?

    Let’s be real. You don’t like how I criticized how people like you are getting taken for a ride so you’re desperate to make it seem like it’s not true.

    The sooner you realize how you’re being taken advantage of, the sooner you can start to do something about it.

      No, I don’t understand what you are asking for.

      You don’t have to be extensive, but… what would you want instead? A more traditional Mini PC? A dGPU instead? A different size laptop? Like, if you could actually tell Framework what you want, in brief, what would you say?

        Fair enough.

        I skimmed it for a few seconds, got a little bit ill at the $1100 starting price, and then it occurred to me: what is this for?

        Wasn’t frameworks whole thing about making modular laptops? What value are they bringing to the mini-ITX market? They’re already modular. In fact, it looks like they’re taking away customizability with soldered RAM.

        You asked me what I want, and this is definitely what I don’t want. If they wanted to make this product appealing to me, they’d have to lower the price and live more modest lifestyles with the more modest profit margins.
