      yeah, my company recently switched away from dell to Framework laptops. a couple of my coworkers with the Framework laptops really like them. They like how sturdy they are. The magnesium alloy case doesn’t flex at all. Our dell laptops with plastic cases often get dented and bent so eastily, and cause various problems.

      We also have a couple Lenovo laptops, and I haven’t heard of any issues. Generally, the plastic used for Lenovo’s cases are noticeably thicker and harder than dells’.

      I definitely feel a sense of ease knowing that if anything goes wrong with our framework laptops, I will most likely be able to fix it.

        That’s awesome, but what issues did they have with dell? They’re pretty easy to disassemble and repair if you don’t buy the cheap consumer shit, get latitudes. But I’m all for straying away for framework.

      At a guess, such cooperation would undermine Lenovo’s profit margin and would thus be a non-starter for them.

      Enter government regulation, to pinch corporations by the ear and drag them to doing what’s right for society.

        I HATE the idea if you can’t make money off it, even if would make the world 10x better for everyone, companies won’t do it. Shareholders gotta eat!!
