Yeah. I get it. I don't have any spare DDR5 SODIMMS or Samsung EVO m.2s laying around.
The point is that I won't be upgrading anything anytime soon, and probably a lot of other people are in the same boat. I would love a Framework 16.
Unless you're in the top right branch of our current K shaped economy, most people won't be buying a Framework or a Steam Machine or upgrading their gaming rig right now.
