  • Modular computing always seems to fall victim to Moore’s law/similar, everything core get so much better every 5 years, that by the time you want to refresh anything, it’s usually time to upgrade the whole thing.

    Periferals are nice but USB is already a multivendor connector standard and if the choice is 3d printing cases or trusting a vendor to exist in 10 years I’m betting on 3d printers for now.

    Hope I’m wrong but this isn’t the first time I’ve seen a project like this.

    At the end of the day the n900 was the ultimate portable Linux machine, but it died because within 10 years you could do all of that on an android device AND have a decent phone too.
