Modern computers have less and less user-serviceable parts. Every system is slightly different and nothing is cross compatible anymore. I don't want to keep throwing away perfectly good old parts and having to buy new ones just because the size and shape has deliberately been made a couple of centimeters different.

servicing is for terrorists and nerds

Care to give an example? There's different CPU sockets but that's about it.

You're not confusing modern computers with Apple hardware, are you?

Get an old computer, maintain it for pennies and stop fucking complaining.
Systems were never cross compatible, starting from the early days of computing.
Every system brought something new, something nonstandard to look people in their system.
Take of your rose tinted glasses you fag.

Nobody can fix 10nm transistors or such, they can only be "printed" initially and then manufactured with some success.
The bigger parts can be replaced with good granularity though. Buy a fucking desktop / server type of computer.

And also often to just make that new thing or improvement work.
Such as the many updates to sockets and controllers and so on.

That trend is really only present in the laptop/mobile segment, not the desktop. I am a little pissed that AMD/Intel can't stick to a socket for more than a few years though, remember how long LGA775 and AM2 lasted?
