That port issue seems annoying enough to make me want to go with Intel. I had been watching Framework, but kind of wanted to go AMD, so I held off getting on earlier.
USB 3.2 gen 2 isn’t exactly slow. In fact, for USB use cases it’s USB 3.2 gen 2 that runs over the USB 4 ports. It’s just the USB 4 ports can do other protocols too, like thunderbolt, pcie and displayport.
Seeing as most laptops I see might have 2xUSB-C ports total, I don’t see it as a drawback.
