Which makes soldered chips in mobile devices (and NUCs/small PCs) all the more insane. But it's good for business - people will just buy a new one anyway... Hopefully socketed chips on desktops will never go away, maybe recycling/reuse businesses will become more common (manufacturers will try and stop that with some sort of locks, no doubt) or we'll see the return of sockets on laptops (I can only dream).
