It started with notebooks, but that wasn’t the master plan.

It would be nice if they partnered with fairphone.

cool - but if their product lines are modular and they try to break out of their niche market. whats to stop someone with a lot more capital from snapping them up (Dell, Lenovo, etc)?

Nothing, but it'd still be a win for the consumer because then we'd have repairable/customizable laptops across the board?

We've also seen other brands aren't interested in it because it's harder to make smaller/thinner laptops when they need to be customizable. Also they make more money from having people throw out their old laptops and buying a new one.

If Dell or Lenovo or similar would actually make modular laptops, that'd also solve my problem.
