I did a price comparison three years ago when I was exploring laptops and the price for a Framework was really high. Like it was cheaper to buy a used laptop every three years for a decade before I break even on a Framework high.

I'm not knocking it at all. It just the cost is so high, and they don't have the means to produce where the price is at a consumer level.
