Framework, any laptop that has good qubes support is fine in my book

Framework is also extremely expensive compared to ThinkPad.
Huh? Do you compare to a new thinkpad or used? Because new ones are not that cheap.
Framework laptops are undeniably expensive. I say that as a happy owner of both the 13 and the 16. The value is not the appeal. To be honest, I don't even expect it to "pay for itself due to upgradability and repairability" like many people say.
More availability of refurbished mainboards should help over time, I guess.
