New laptop arrived today. It's a Framework 16 DIY edition. Every component can be replaced, upgraded, and is sold separately in their store or marketplace. Comes with or without OS.

I've looked at these before, my biggest gripe with laptops is the lack of upgradability. Let us know your impressions once you've had some time with it.
Will do. Most laptops you can upgrade diskspace and ram. Here you can upgrade dedicated graphics and ports also. They promise forward compatibility for the main board+cpu but we'll see about that
That's super cool. This is something that I wanted so many years ago. Though now I don't really care all that much.
Right! I've wanted one sicne forever. Mostly bought is because it's cool. A laptop with latest gen can run well for 6 years if you keep the disks clean of junkware anyway. They promise forward compatibility for parts but we'll see in 6 years lol
Very nice! Is it easy to build?
Yeah instructions are clear wnough for a non-technical person. The mainboard+cpu come installed in the frame already.
I like the concept: you can customize it however you like and replace a part easily
This is 🔥
This looks sweet!
