I have a FW13 with the 11th gen Intel chip, the first laptop board they made. It is still supported and still getting firmware updates where appropriate.

(although recently Omarchy have announced a deal with Dell computers, so unlikely to get more hardware from Framework) and then folks often complain that Framework computers are more expensive and perhaps feel less premium than their competitors.

This is possibly true, but hopefully the build quality of the new 'Pro' model addresses that and than there is just the fact that they are more expensive ... which they are, but they are also infinitely repairable and upgradable, which their competitors are not.
