Is your idea of repairable based on whether ram is upgradable? They tried and couldn't do it, so they had to settle for the next best thing.

    RAM? CPU? GPU? Is anything at all outside of the SSD? These components make up 90% of the cost of the product so any one of them dying means it goes straight in the trash can. There's tons of hardware that doesn't have those restrictions and works just as well.

    No they did not. They could have not sold it, and developed/sold something else instead.
