The recent price increase on the MacBooks tipped me towards pre-ordering a ~700 USD more expensive Framework because I believed in the product. Now, to keep my same configuration Framework is effectively asking me to dish out another 300 USD on top of that. Its very unfortunate but consumers really got the short end of the stick here.
Unfortunately for Framework I am not willing to pay this delta and will go with Apple for now - bitter to not have pulled the trigger a few weeks earlier.
