I feel it is important to support projects and businesses who are working on making it easier to repair and upgrade the things they make. So here's a thread about laptop computers.

Context

Desktop computers were not perfect in terms of being able to be fixed/upgraded, but they were better than laptops. So, where can one go to find laptops that can be repaired or upgraded?
