Apple claim's that the Neo is built for repairability. We hope that means no more soldered down storage and lack of upgradeability!
The IBM PC’s open-architecture design didn’t just make repairs easy—it set the standard for every PC that followed. Its modular layout laid the groundwork for the motherboard form factors and expansion slots we still use today.
