Modular PCs may not be repairable PCs, but they'd be pretty close. And repairable PCs interrupt the obsolescence cycle, so PC makers aren't going to be behind this.

Framework's about the only company doing really well in this space; I want to see IT (org) leaders at companies pushing Framework as a cost saving product internally at their companies. If Dell starts getting serious competition from companies like Framework in the corporate sector, then they'll start looking at making modular PCs.

Intel will get modular PCs when they launch their own product line.

Intel had a modular pc. Look up intel compute element.

Intel is out of the product game.
