A laptop you can upgrade the parts of instead of buying a whole new laptop? Sounds pretty cool. Did I dream it up or is this a real thing?

I have one and it’s pretty great, more expensive than a used thinkpad, but cheaper than most other new laptops with similar specs. The 3:2 screen on the 13” is the killer feature for me. I couldn’t go back to a 16:9 laptop at this point. Also not needing to pay the windows tax on the diy version is cool.

Yea lol sorry I dunno why I forgot to add a link. Also if you're using or planning on ever using linux I would highly recommend the new 2.8k display, it'll be a nice 2x scaling factor which is quite handy is you run any older x11 programs (games, some proprietary software, etc).
