      That’s a fair point. I suppose conceptually that’s what those organizations were trying to do. So it’s a failure in execution which then probably acts as a deterrent for other corporations considering stepping up to challenge MS on modular desktop PCs, which aren’t that big of a market in the first place.

      I guess if you were going to do that you’d pair it to rigid hardware instead for that reason and at that point you’re Apple and we’re talking about MacOS.
