@thomasfuchs what do you think is the more durable computer ever made, from a planned-obsolescence perspective?
@santiago probably any SoC design, like Raspberry Pi’s. The fewer components and the smaller it is, the less likely failure is. And they’re fast enough for computing tasks into the foreseeable future.
@thomasfuchs
Surely something made from 74LS chips so you can easily repair it?
@santiago
@dheadshot @thomasfuchs I'm more likely to think that older hardware were better built. At least the PCs were heavier (not sure heavier means better built). But i think that replaceable parts (CPU, audio, video, ram, etc) is likely to be found in older hardware. I would like to have a PI or PII PC, maybe an MSX II and a thinkpad fromthe IBM era
