Everything except the APU/RAM/Mobo combo is upgradable, and you don’t have to replace the whole machine if the board fails.

So... storage, case, and USB C dongles?

You can change the squares on the front panel!!!

Fans, case, ports, side panel, ...
Whatever you do with a pc, you can do with this.
Just not separately replace ram and cpu because of the cpu design of amd.

Hell, it can be connected to another one to make on hell of a compute monster too.

Oh. Okay. As long as I can replace the side panel.

A PC lets you replace the CPU, ram and plug in multiple pcie cards.

This is less upgradable than the average laptop.
