    Being honest, its really hard for me to buy a pop_os laptop when the framework laptop exists. Being able to have that level of customizability and self repair options are just too good to pass up.

    Suggestion: perhaps pop_os could collab with framework to make a pop_os laptop that is far more customizable and repairable than what is currently available

      System76 supports right to repair, and all laptops sold have readily available replacement parts and documentation. Those interested in firmware development may even request board documentation.

      Similar to HP, I suppose Framework could request to collab with System76 for optimized support and integration with Pop!_OS; but we’re looking to design and manufacture our own laptops in Denver, codenamed Virgo. We’ve had a bucket list of ideas for what we want in a dream laptop for years, and Framework falls short of that dream.

        Thank you for the informative reply! I am curious; why does the framework laptop fall short of a dream laptop? Can you elaborate?
