The Breakdown

  • Fully modular, swap parts without glue or voided warranty
  • Right-to-repair baked in, lasts decades with upgrades
  • Open ecosystem, hackable firmware, user-owned from day one
  • Framework modules cost more than disposable laptops
  • Custom mini-PCs: peak DIY, no corporate lock-in
