The Framework Laptop

Framework founder here. We'll be announcing pricing shortly before we open pre-orders this spring. We won't be asking consumers to pay a premium for longevity, and will be setting pricing to be comparable to other popular notebooks using the same silicon.

No information about pricing?

What about shipping and deliveries to regions other than US, like EU for example?

How will your volumes look during this silicon shortage?

Earlier quoted context omitted.

does not matter

In what way?

it will be expensive because it liiks like the first teuly modular laptop. it will get cheaper if it has a big enough market. so in a long enough time frame it does not matter

Great. Another laptop with 1/2 arrow keys. Such a shame.

Looks promising, but having AMD chips would be killer.

I wish new laptops would follow the form factor of the old Thinkpads instead of Macbooks. I realize that most people like trackpads and can't stand the trackpoint, but as someone who has used one for so long it would be fantastic if something like this existed.

That being said, this is a great project and it looks like it should be successful - having a laptop that is built to last with interchangable parts is a great idea and should've been done long ago.
