      The Framework laptop brand gives me hope.

      Unfortunately they still seem have a relatively high cost for their performance. But you can’t beat the modular design.

        I’d say in this case the premium is justified and worth it if you can afford it. You’re getting a top of the line, repairable & upgradeable, Linux friendly, esthetically pleasing laptop with excellent documentation, filling a void that simply wasn’t there just a few short years ago. Also, if they reach critical mass and adoption, prices might come down.
