    Speaking of weird, having made a DIY laptop i noticed plenty of weird design decisions in all of the consumer models.

    Mine got:
    -Power in *and out*, since why carry a huge battery around if it's not accessible, i.e. to run a soldering iron?

    -HDMI *input* and USB *output* options, since a laptop is a screen+keyboard terminal useful to attach other computers to.

    -Is mostly battery by weight, since what's the point if it can't run for a day?

    -Got a removable core, since upgrades will happen.
