Framework has launched a new version of its Laptop 13, dubbed the DIY Edition B-Stock, available for $499. This 11th Gen model is unique due to its 'barebones configuration,' which utilizes leftover parts to offer a more affordable option. Despite its lower price, the laptop lacks several key components out of the box, including RAM, storage, and an operating system. This approach allows users to customize and upgrade their device as needed. The company has also begun selling refurbished DDR4 RAM to support this customization. The DIY Edition B-Stock is noted for having slight cosmetic blemishes but offers a fully customizable and upgradeable experience for tech enthusiasts looking for a budget-friendly option.
