We certainly hope so. As we look at the ~5 year view of this and have a substantial number of Mainboards in the wild that have been upgraded out of Framework Laptops, we want to do everything we can to foster an ecosystem of methods to re-use them. We actually announced a giveaway of 100 Mainboards to developers as part of the release today to help bootstrap this: https://forms.gle/RegGHe6R4H5cEstH9

Thanks for supporting long-lived hardware. One existing favorite is the classic Lenovo X230/X430 series, which has seen several mods over the years, with a healthy resale market.

Do you plan to offer Pro/Enterprise CPUs (Intel vPro, Ryzen Pro), for h/w security features like memory encryption or Windows secured core / VBS?

For open-source firmware and kernel/hypervisor development, it would be good to have a serial port header.

The i7-1185G7 SKU supports vPro: https://frame.work/products/mainboard?v=FRANFG000C

We also have some additional debug support through a header that we've documented here: https://github.com/FrameworkComputer/EmbeddedController
