It’s already happening:
Maybe if you spec them out.
But it’s like $1000 for the midrange model with the latest hardware, which is in line with the competition.
And the first upgrade you do will end up saving money, since you won’t have to replace the whole laptop.
When last I looked into them, if you compared a barebones Framework laptop (i.e. without storage/RAM/OS/charger) to a big brand name laptop with the same/similar processor but also a SSD/RAM/OS/charger & various IO ports (e.g. usb-c/HDMI/ethernet/etc.), the Framework laptop was still more expensive…
Agree with the upgrade path, but I can’t justify paying 1k for a midrange model (of any brand). I personally go to the used market, and spend up to 500€ for a ~2 year old machine (which was >1k new).
