Re:Framework Laptop 13 review: a DIY dream come true by pcdoodle on Wednesday May 17, 2023 @08:09AM (#35974137)
eBay: The failed motherboards for instance will probably find new life from people selling their broken boards for $75, then component level repair shops can use the schematics to fix and then resell for $300+.

People do this with macbooks "logic boards" without access to schematics and now with framework, the barrier of entry is even lower.

Framework is doing something that goes back a long time, people like the parts swap capability (Long term car platforms for instance, created fanatics that became brand ambassadors and love to use this medium as an outlet to show off their ingenuity).
