    The problem for some Framework fans, myself included is “opportunity cost”. What essentially happened was that AMD piggybacked onto Frameworks event to release a product that Framework spent half the event talking about.

    Framework basically just released a PC case but, those already exists lol. And that’s where the opportunity cost comes in, if Framework is spending time on a product a lot of their fans don’t care about then Framework isn’t spending time on products those fans do care about or products that better follow the companies mission statment which makes us upset.

    People seem to be split on the desktop though. Just like a lot of my “normie” friends don’t care about buying a repairable/upgradable laptop, I don’t care about the benefits this Desktop offers. Personally I’ve just come to terms that the desktop just isn’t for me and that’s OK. I would have preferred Framework spent this opportunity to make a repairable tablet or something similar but, not everything is made for me.
