Normies don’t buy framework laptops.

Search this thread for the “oh but it’s so expensive, I could just buy a new laptop from any other manufacturer every 3 years and it would be cheaper” posts - those are the normies.

Nah. Normies needing Ethernet ports buy usb c to Ethernet adapters at Walmart or Best Buy.

What would a normie need a second ethernet port for? Even a first ethernet port for that matter
