Bikeshedding, or why I want to build a laptop

I’m sure I’m not the only one who feels Apple’s quality is degrading. I spend 10 hours a day on my laptop and would spend any amount of money within reason for a better one. However, everything comes with tradeoffs.

Tldr: he wants a non-upgradeable laptop that is maxed out from day one. I’d want a bit more upgrade path than he does, but he has some interesting thoughts.

    Buying a laptop every other year is fucking wasteful. I don’t get why those people think it’s a good idea to ruin the planet for marginal gains.

      I buy a maxed out laptop every 8 years. My 2008 laptop just lost its battery this year, but still works when plugged in.
