How are they in terms of reparability?

I really like the ethos of framework.... alas, they are from the US. But if you are going to buy any US tech, you can't do better than them.

When you think about it, framework makes the perfect work laptop.

Why?

They are too overpriced to buy for personal use, but a company doesn't care and will write it off in five years, at which point you can buy it for basically nothing, order a new mainboard, polish it up a little and you have yourself a brand new high end laptop for under a thousand. The system does not account for actually repairable electronics :)

Yeah, I would switch from my Framework to a Slimbook if they offered upgradability.

They could make parts that work to the Framework spec, that is open source, which would he awesome.
