> The framework 12 is comparable in cost to a macbook neo

No it isnt, not by a long shot! Only if you buy the basic entry level version (DIY) without any RAM, storage, ports or a charger. At which point we arent remotely talking about the same thing anymore!

It's approx £80 to £100 more for the same ram and SSD configuration as a £600 MacBook neo (No charger given in many countries as most people have a usb c charger). That's comparable. It's not a huge difference and the feature set is far greater for the framework.

(£545 with the device with ports, £80 for the ram £50 for the SSD.)

Are these edu prices? Or is frameworks EU pricing just nuts?

Here a comparable configuration to the neo is close to 800€!

I'm sensing the EU prices are just high as Framework don't offer edu prices.
