    That is awesome. This seperates them from the easy to fix laptops. I don’t know of many modern laptops where upgrading a processor is even possible.

    Thanks!

      It isn’t so much replacing the CPU as it is replacing the entire motherboard, but it’s still better than what we’ve historically dealt with.

        Youre right, but with framework the motherboard isnt hard connected to the connectors/ports of the laptop. Or any hardware really.

          Yep. It’s literally designed to be repaired. A nice change of pace.

            I agree. When i got my framework 16 it just felt like suddenly i had freedom in my hands, a breath of fresh air. It was amazing in the first week learning all the hooks and crannies of their mad design and open schematics.
