Are there any modern laptop that can have every skngle part of them changed with ease, like the t420?
I mean it does not have to lenovo but I really liked that I could change stuff as esdy as memory and screen to shit like processor and motherboard easy.


Are laptops not built like this anymore? I just want to spice things up rather than buying another t420, since my current one's case is all sorts of fucked.

Most ThinkPads still are, with exceptions of XXXs, Carbon, and other slimline devices.

Nope none are "easy" I had the T400 and it wasn't andy harder to replace than any other modern computer(high end) I think that the T400 and T420 are probably about the same build wise, if so it's a time consuming one, same with the W510 Thinkpad and the 13" (non-retina) MBP. The think pads are easier if you are someone who needs accesses to the keyboard often. on the MPB it's 10 philips to remove the base and change the RAM, 4 more to change the HDD and battery, then I don't remember how many probably about 10 to remove the mobo. I don't remember the W510 too well but it took longer to rebuild that(bought both used and wanted to clean and re-do thermal paste). BTW to give you an idea of long to me, I could take apart the T400 to get to the BIOS batt and put it back together in 15 min. BTH the old HPs (that still had the Compaq name in small print on them) are the easiest I have ever worked on if you have all the drivers; they use a lot of hex heads.
