    @Ulrich The repairable space is a tricky one. They are a company that makes things designed to be taken apart. They have to support it. Supporting every kid that screws up his first CPU install is a no go. GPUs are a nightmare right now with the things literally going on fire. Ok, the ram could be user replaceable but most PC users only upgrade ram when they upgrade the mobo anyway. This is niche but I think it’s the only way they could think of doing it without a million support calls.

      That’s non-sense. There’s an entire industry that’s existed for decades for repairable and upgradable computers.
