Yeah I think both system76 and framework are a bit of a mixed bag. Some things are good, some things are quite bad. For the framework, you pay 2000 dollars but you dont get a 2000 dollar quality laptop - what you get is the ability to repair it and change out parts. So you get a medium quality laptop but with ability to change it. Some people will value that, no doubt, but for me, I think I prefer to buy a new one every three years. I just wish keyboards, mousepads, memory and batteries could be replaced on all laptops. Then they would last a very long time.
