What about desktop and laptop PC repairability pages?

Dear iFixit Team,

as you know, we love your repair guides at Repair Café Marseille (https://www.facebook.com/repaircafemarse...)! :-)

Recently, we posted an info regarding one of your latest teardowns (https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Retina+M...) and its very poor repairability score...

People wanted to know more, and asked for buying guides ranking products according to their repairability score, etc.

However, I found only guides for smartphones (https://fr.ifixit.com/smartphone-repaira...) and tablets (https://fr.ifixit.com/tablet-repairabili...). But what about two other popular electronics items: desktop and laptop PCs?

IMHO iFixit should promote more its product rankings. As Greenpeace famous guide (http://www.greenpeace.org/international/...) iFixit repairability rankings are in fact true buying guides, as more and more people are looking for reliable info out there.

What do you think? Thanks in advance for your attention!

Best regards,

David.

Hi @davidbourgui,

Great question and suggestion! We're always looking for the best ways to communicate our ideas to the world.

We do have a new(er) blog article about Creating our Gold Standard for Repair as well as a page that breaks down what, exactly, that gold standard is.

Send our best to the Repair Café Marseille!
