I like! much more sensible to me than a modular mobile phone.
Fingers crossed it isn't a) rubbish and b) expensive so it gets enough support and sales to actually survive for some time.
I like the concept - and whilst I don't think there is a *lot* of value for consumers in the whole thing being as modular as they are offering - I do really like the expansion card concept. Like a modern version of the PCMCIA slot.
it would be nice to see that concept expanded by other manufacturers, given that it basically looks like an interior USB-C slot that avoids having external dongles sticking out of the side of the laptop - very neat innovation imo.
I like that a lot it's a pity they don't have an AMD version though, perhaps it'll be a board upgrade in the future.
Concept looks great and I hope the build quality is good. The worry as always is will it take off and last? I hope so because I would seriously consider this for my next laptop.
As I'm not a laptop user i maybe speaking out of turn but not having modular battery, screen, and webcam seem to be missing a trick. Like i said I'm not a laptop user but i would've thought those are things that people would like to swap and be fairly simple, at least easier than the ports, to implement.
I would love a 15in workstation version, I would certainly maintain the chassis and keep upgrading as long as I could.
I love the the little addin USB-C slots, I think they're fantastic and I can adapt my laptop on the fly depending on what job I need to do. Even for my users in the company, I could just purchase the chassis and then adapt their configuration as per their needs meaning I could just purchase 80x chassis and sufficient adapters and configure to order.
If only it was based on AMD CPU...
The more you live, less you die. More you play, more you die. Isn't it great.
I'll get one as soon as they have 15"+ models.
