This seems pretty important to crowdsource and talk about, so I’m gonna go ahead and risk violating the no politics rule from a few days ago, because I don’t see a better community to ask this. My defense for it not “being politics” is, I’m asking you to keep it to purchasing decisions and how the details of how the tariffs are likely to work, as opposed to who did what. This thread has the potential to save people lots of money if it gets big!
Tariffs are gonna make things more expensive for Americans; what are you planning on buying now instead of later, or stockpiling a little of?
The coolest part about the framework is the fixability. I’ll be able to run on 16gb of DDR5 until DDR6 becomes the hot new thing, at which time I’ll get 32gb of ddr5 on sale and be set set for another good while, and during all that if anything breaks on it I can get the parts cheap enough and do the repair myself easily. Then maybe in like idk 15yr or so if framework is still around I can buy a new mobo/ram and maybe screen to slap in that bad boy and now I have the laptop of Theseus that’ll keep trucking until I repeat the cycle.
