Is the Laptop also available with a AMD ryzen CPU?

Yep, this is my question too. If not is the CPU swapable?

Especially given that this product appeals to the PC builder types, it really should support AMD.

Intel to AMD CPU swap is impossible.

They definitively should design it to support motherboard swapping.

Or maybe even swap to ARM base motherboard when/if 8,16,32 cores ARM base CPU with 3-15watts is available and ready.

We've designed the Framework Laptop for end-user motherboard swaps from CPU platform to CPU platform. We minimized the cost of that move by keeping the memory, storage, and WiFi socketed.
