Yeah it's pretty ass. My current ThinkPad is okay, but even they're starting to solder shit and make it harder to do cool stuff. Maybe Framework will work out. Might order one as my next laptop. Will post about it here if you're interested. The one with the external GPU is compelling. Although if you secure the internal screws it's hardly external. Still cool though.

Please do. I've heard mixed results for different reasons on them. People I know who have ordered them didn't keep them, they had problems with them. Problems I hope they work out eventually. They were power users expecting the functions to work as advertised. They hated the screen, keyboard quality, and lack of just about every other comparable feature for the price. They knew they were going to pay a premium for it, but they felt the price was too high for the usability.
I imagine if you don't rely on it for work in any way, they're probably enough, but again to spend that kind of money on something you'll use once a week for 3-4 years before you throw it out or sell it is kind of nuts too.
