While this is true the idea behind this device is that certain pieces, like the keyboard or trackpad, don't go obsolete as fast as the CPU or GPU do. They also encourage you to use your old internals as a mini PC when you upgrade, which eliminates even more e-waste. That, combined with the fact that it's so damn easy to repair, means that while it might not be BIFL, it's certainly not "cry when the screen breaks"
