Just took a look at Framework, it's a cool concept. I wish the company was older just to see how it forms it's sea legs. As a mass market item, I can't imagine the general populace upgrading their own laptop over time, though maybe I'm just old. I didn't see any computers made from Valve, but I had not thought of them as a hardware company.

But yeah I agree, companies will form their optimization function for profits not people (by design) so people should never put their faith in them. This M1 Air is my first Mac, but I do have to say it is really nice. Excited to see what other companies do to combat it.
