  "account": "The news that Framework has lowered the price of its LPCAMM2 memory modules brings a bright spot to the otherwise grim story of the ongoing RAM crisis. Framework, the company behind modular laptops, has managed to secure a limited supply of memory modules at a lower cost, and is passing on the savings to customers. Previously, the supplier's memory prices had more than doubled compared to Framework's previous shipments, but now the company is offering the lower price to orders shipped at a higher cost as well as to orders through Batch 10. This retroactive price reduction is in line with Framework's commitment to keeping computers accessible, even in the current environment. While the new prices are still above the original pre-order baseline, they are lower than the last cost update that drove the current pricing for new pre-orders. Customers with upgraded Framework Laptop 13 Pro can take advantage of this deal while supplies last, as Framework has stated that the limited quantity available is offered on a first-come, first-serve basis.",
