Starting with my ZBook 15 from 2014: 1. Make it 16:10. There is plenty of bezel for that. 1900x1200 or something like that. 1200p was pretty common on good CRT monitors in the 90s. 2. Make the number pad optional. Framework is doing that with their 16" model. I'll bury my number pad and give a party. 3. Keep the three physical buttons on the touchpad. By the way, it can probably do gestures and it definitely register clicks but I use it only to move the pointer and scroll with two fingers. I bought the physical buttons because I want to click with them. The middle one pastes the text selected with the left one (Linux.) 4. Keep it user serviceable. I replaced RAM, disks, keyboards, battery a few months ago, it aged well. 5. Maybe make it 2 kg. 6. Maybe trim some bezel on the sides and make it less wide. 7. Definitely make it work with a much slimmer power unit. 8. It's got USB 3 and 2 ports, DisplayPort, VGA, SD card. Probably add an USB C but I don't know. HDMI? I've got a converter for that. 9. Current year CPU and RAM. 10. Discrete graphic card? Don't know, probably not worth it. I have to watch videos and move my desktop, that's all.
