  27. Some devices aren’t hard to repair by accident—they’re built that way. These design choices block access, add risk, and push you toward replacement instead of repair. That’s not innovation. That's planned obsolescence.

    Which one annoys you the most?

  31. Apple has issued an emergency recall for the new Neo laptop after discovering a critical design flaw: it’s repairable.

  34. The new MacBook Neo is the most repairable MacBook we’ve seen in 14 years. Screwed-in battery tray, modular ports, sensible layout, and day-one repair manuals. It’s not perfect, but it’s a real step forward for MacBook repair. Read the full breakdown at the link below.
