I am not talking about Framework going bankrupt financially.
I think they will be very successful, at least within the niche they target.
They just loose people, who believed into them for years.

Hey now! A decade-old Thinkpad can still get a kid through college or connect someone to services they need or people they love for less than anything you can buy new, so at a performance vs price perspective, for some people, you can’t beat a T420!
Whether you are talking about a $300 used laptop, a $269 Best Buy special, a $2,500 Framework 16, or a $4,000 MacBook Pro kitted out with some of their crazy SSD and RAM options, no laptop will represent a good value proposition to every user. No computer can be everything to everyone.

You just don’t want to read, how I feel about things.
