What is your philosophy of upgrading to the 13 pro? (frame.work)

I got my 13 a few months ago and it kind of sucks if I waited I could have gotten the 13 pro instead. However I won't throw it all away or sell it to buy the pro even though I could. I'm planning on upgrading one part a year (or whenever they break), starting with the keyboard cover, to get to the pro. What are your plans?

Why ? there will be a better model again eventually, so why not just use your current model until it cant do what you want anymore and THEN start the upgrade process

I have an old MS Surface Pro 7+ with LMDE. I use it infrequently and it does all I need, when it can't, my plan is to go to a Framework 13x

You're right, I only need the keyboard updated and thats all until something stops working.
