Any that you would recommend specifically, I haven't been keeping up with consumer networking as much as I used to.

 

I've been watching the prices of the RAM and SSD drives that I have been considering for my Framework 16 Batch 7 which doesn't ship until Q1. The 64gb 5600 Crucial RAM is down to under $200 and the 4tb Samsung 990 Pro is down to $250. Should I pull the trigger on them now or wait until closer to or after my Framework arrives even though the price might be higher?

As someone who has used the touchbar, it is infinitely worse than the function row. It makes changing the volume a 2 or 3 button press and looking down at the touchbar instead of using muscle memory to blindly reach and make a quick change. Apple had the best chance of getting software support because they made both the operating system and the hardware, and they're known for being the most capable of getting new technologies supported by third parties. While not always the case, I think that if apple couldn't make the touchbar successful, then no one else can.
