This just in: What? No, I can't believe it. The 2018 MacBook Air still a huge pain to have repaired

Maintainable?

Nope, the problem is that for anyone buying anything from Apple, there is no hope of bering able to fix anything as Apple want you to stump up the money for a new device.

Note: I am not saying that other manufacturers are much better.

Personally I hate laptops. Hate the trackpad, hate the kayboard, do not like the small (relative to my PC) screens. Find it awkward to use.

I like a proper keyboard with a proper mouse and a big screen (dual 24" in my case) and if anything goes wrong with my PC I can just swap out the parts that fail.

I can increase the memory or replace or add hard drives V easilly, I do not have to resort to a soldering iron.

Whenever I upgragde I tend to keep a lot of the existing parts from the old pc, makes it cheaper to upgrade and i only change those bits I need to.
