Definitely part of it, but they also compare to other laptops with similarly sized displays etc and it is larger and heavier despite being less powerful than many of them. Obviously that’s because it’s modular and will be more powerful in future as a result too, but still fair to point out.
have to say I have had the same concern. it could happen, any business can fold. I just bought a new AMD 13 anyway. I’ve decided that the right to repair (and, lol, option to repair, even) is far more important than maximizing my dollar to fps ratio and I’m happy to add my contribution to the cause

absolutely
while It is a little weaker than the competition and at a higher price, It’s a piece o tech that will last far longer
in 5 or 10 years you would only need to pay for a new cpu or gpu, meanwhile with other brands you’d have to buy a new laptop altogether
and having the ability to swap your IO whenever and with whatever you need, is a game changer for some folks
If the vendor is still around in 10 years.
That’s the bit I’m worried about, having a Framework.
