DeepComputing can kind of make whatever they want (with whatever restrictions they want) and naturally be associated with Framework's brand.
The memory isn't really doable with this SOC, but the storage is just an SD card slot on the motherboard. (I saw this and spoke to the CEO at this year's Ubuntu Summit.)
