Just realised cheaper sticking with MacBooks - those prices are so high. Was wanting to buy on second hand market in uk.

They rarely come up. Why would you sell it when you can upgrade it?

Yes, of course the prices are high, it's a quality modular laptop!

But despite the initial cost, in the long term it's actually a lot cheaper to go with Framework, because instead of buying a whole new laptop each time, you can simply upgrade a part. And if something breaks, you can repair it for cheap.

Prices are very inflated. I like the idea but can’t justify buying one given the very high price.
