so compared to a run-of-the-mill Lenovo/HP/Dell - where I still can get all parts 5 years after buying it - the innovation is that you have decoupled the I/O ports with your modules, which might reduce wear and failure there. Given that swapping the mainboard will probably just be as expensive for you as for the aforementioned devices (where some by Fujitsu even had standardized mainboards ;)) + you probably command a significant premium in the beginning: I really don't get the value/eco proposition except for reusing the frame/Display (the latter of which will eventually break as well).
Do you at least plan to release schematics so people can try to understand failure modes of the actual things most of us without extensive resources can't repair today?
~ typed on a Lenovo T440s (4GB soldered RAM unfortunately): swapped the touchpad for the one from the 450s, replaced the fan, after it made noises, started with a tiny m.2-SATA, then upgraded to a spare SATA from the Desktop, updated the screen after it broke. Now the bottom shell has a dent in it (full backpack) but I think I'll let it pass. Still seems pretty repairable to me.
