Yeah it's also seems a little gimmiky. Those usbc adapters kinda take up more space than just having actual ports would.
This comp is 13.5in and basically has 4 usbc ports that you have built in dongles for. It would be more efficient to just have 6 normal usbc ports and let the user source their own dongles.
It's also 2000usd for an i7 and 32gb of ram.
While I like the whole partially recycled thing, there are way better options out there for a 13in laptop. I guess if you are earning a fat stack of cash and you want something no one else has its cool though.
The better options aren’t user replaceable and that 2000usd configuration is for people who need the features which that i7 variant provides. They will release different motherboards with AMD CPUs later this year hopefully.
Meh hard pass. Been tried before and hope they make it but a system that allows users to buy one-off pieces to repair is not as profitable from a business stance as one that makes you buy an entire new laptop. Aside from the fact that they will have to be rather proactive in designing and releasing new mobos to keep up with releases to be relevant.
Do I like the product absolutely! I just don't see the company lasting long enough to make any interesting modules to make it a good alternative.
