    I dont know why this is controversial. I’m way more happy with 4x USB-C, than 5 unique ports, that will likely never be used on a regular basis, even when they were relevant

      How about this:

      • 4x USB-C (can’t see why I’d need 4 though, 3 is plenty)
      • 2x USB-A
      • HDMI
      • RJ-45
      • headphone jack
      • microsd

      That should still fit just fine on the chassis if they didn’t do the stupid curve thing, and it certainly wouldn’t make it thicker.

      4 USBC would be cool. Most of these devices only have 2 or 3, minus 1 required for power delivery. If you have peripherals a hub is almost required.

          Just had a look at the prices, I can get 128 GB of RAM for the price that Apple charge for 16 GB of RAM.

          I’m tempted to get 128 GB of RAM just because, I definitely don’t need it.

            It’s nuts. Framework marks up their RAM, and it’s still way cheaper through them than through Apple, and you can buy aftermarket RAM too.

            My next personal laptop will probably be Framework, especially since nearly everything else is going soldered RAM.
