minus-squareLandless2029@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·11 days agoYeah but imagine if we had a laptop motherboard standard like desktops. Instead of ATX it would be something like MLF - Modular Laptop Framework Where there would be some board standard for laptop boards. Then you get screen ribbon standards, keyboard ribbon standards, etc. This would allow one to order a laptop case with screen, keyboard and touchpad. But you can pick your board, cpu, ram. I know some companies have done GPU upgrades but how nice would it be to upgrade your 4 year old $3k laptop’s GPU?
