I have been eyeing the framework 16 for a while now, and would like some opinions from those already in this ecosystem. For context, my current daily driver is an HP zbook with a dual battery system that I have *HEAVILY* modified over the years, having replaced the CPU, upgraded the ram well beyond stock, and even upgraded to a much newer MXM gpu. It is showing its age, though. The ddr3 ram is quite outdated and the pile of sata SSDs in this thing are aging out. My cpu socket has long been discontinued by intel, and there is no upgrade path for newer MXM gpus for this laptop that it could reasonably power.

​

I honestly really liked my old HP for just how modifiable and upgradable it was, and I am curious where to go from here.
