Comment on Recommendations for a TOTL used/new laptop under $1000?

You’re or getting a “top of the line” laptop for $1000.
In my opinion the Framework laptops are the top of the line at every price point but there’s an argument to be made for Macs if you’re made of money and don’t care about being fucked.

Sorry but I don’t want a MacBook. I’ll run *nix on this laptop for my workloads.
I see. The Framework 13 with Ryzen 9 HX 370 is about $1700 and the Ryzen 7 from the last generation is $900. I think both are priced a bit too expensive for a barebones device, even if they are super repairable. A $100-$200 reduction would be my ideal price for these laptops.
Thanks for the comment.

They are expensive but you have to account for the fact that they’ll theoretically last indefinitely.
