You can buy it without RAM, without storage, without WiFi card, and without OS and sort out all those things yourself. It's still a laptop with all that entails

You can buy it without RAM, without storage, without WiFi card, and without OS and sort out all those things yourself. It's still a laptop with all that entails, but everything that was reasonable to make configurable or swappable -- they did it.
- qbasic_forever 5y agoDo you actually save money if you buy all those components yourself? With all the shortages and issues it is a real nightmare sourcing inexpensive components these days. Unless you're at a huge scale and have contracts with the component manufacturers, or you've been hoarding a supply of parts from years ago... I bet it's going to be cheaper to tick a box when ordering vs. buying the same stuff from newegg, etc.
- OJFord 5y agoYes, even if only because you can choose something lower-spec'd than they offer, they're certainly not ripping anyone off (like any other manufacturer does!) vs. buying the same elsewhere. I checked Amazon & Scan at my time of pre-order (UK) and decided to go for it just for the.. 'thrill' of it. (Suppose I can/should check again nearer the time.)
