Going to pre-order one or the other tomorrow. No gaming, watching x265 10bit movies, general browsing and work tasks through Fedora. It hurts losing the 61 but how much of a difference is the $320? (Already have a 990 Pro waiting.)

So it can be upgraded at a later date?

Yep! Looks to be out of stock at the moment, but framework sells it directly. https://frame.work/products/battery?v=FRANGWAT01

In Austria(Europe), it's still in stock. But yeah, it's one of the reasons for my decision to purchase a framework laptop, as i can get a battery replacement directly from them. And you don't need to buy an expensive aftermarket one.
