Okay, Mr Logical_Fallacy_Man, because noting that the marketplace 
reality is that 80% buy laptops now isn't an endorsement of that fact 
that should get you upset and slinging lame Ad Hominems.

When the customer wants a laptop, offering a desktop solution is 
inappropriate & will be disregarded.

Consider a guy going into a dealership to buy a sports car to race on 
the track on weekends:  a you really going to try to tell him that his 
needs are all wrong and he should buy a big old truck instead because it 
can haul more manure?

Or buy one of these for a laptop...boom:


OWC Express 4M2 - Four-Slot Thunderbolt (40Gb/s) NVMe M.2 SSD Enclosure 
for NVMe M.2 2280 SSDs

Sure, but that's just a niche of a niche.  And since Thunderbolt can 
daisy-chain a half dozen devices per port, 6x4 = 24 NMVE's too.

Now to escape from niche corner cases, contemplate how many TB of SSD 
storage users actually have, applying the Parato Principle to determine 
what the ~80% max capability required use case solution is.  YMMV, but I 
doubt its more than 4TB.

You very well may have little to no choice other than to try to fix it 
yourself.  What shops will even touch a DIY build these days?

FWIW, I had a conversation with a shop owner two weeks ago on servicing 
some old sports gear I have and his response was that he's discontinued 
it because the revenue's no longer worth the liability exposure risk.


> I don't want to use anyones "warranty service".

You may not have much choice in the matter anymore.

YMMV, but I recognize that there's value in having the option of DIYing 
themselves, or delegating the headache to someone else to service.

I didn't screw up, I wanted this CPU all along.

Well under $900 including second 16 GB added RAM, not including
software or video.  It's better than your mini.

Section 1.

[...] No state shall make or enforce any law which shall

nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal

Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent.  States are
liable for denying needed abortions, e.g. TX.
