Framework Laptop 16

I like Framework as an idea, but we're talking about a 1500$ premium over this competing 16 inch laptop.

1200$ https://www.bestbuy.com/product/gigabyte-aero-x16-copilot-pc...

I literally can buy 2 of the Gigabyte laptops for the same price.

Even if I can swap out some parts, odds are it's still easier( and cheaper) to just buy a new competing laptop ever 3 years.

If your motivation is "the environment" you can always just donate your old laptop , give it to a friend, etc. "Gaming" laptop might as well be for code for cheaper , but it has RGB and your co-workers might look at you weird.

If you care about environment make regulator force companies to make repairable and upgradeable hardware. That could actually have an impact.

Putting burden on consumer choices is one of the biggest hoaxes of modern capitalism.
