Does anyone know how the Intel and AMD offerings compare?
I take it battery life is better on Intel.
What about performance for different tasks, such as coding, compiling, etc. What about local LLMs? Do both platforms have "unified memory" à la Apple Silicon? Neither?

Amd versions can not suspend to RAM, I heard.

We'll see what happens when it ships.
Honestly I expect significantly cheaper laptops from other oems.

Sure, but if you factor in the possibility of never having to do a full system upgrade again, and instead just upgrading individual parts (including the chassis) as needed, the long term cost of ownership would be way lower if you commit to framework

At this point RAM prices dwarf everything else in a system, at least for me
