Correct - that is why I bought a Thinkpad X1 Extreme - both SSD and RAM are user replaceable. Granted its not as thin as X1 Carbon but I don't need to carry it around much so that is not a big issue for me.

I dont really understand why modern devs can't carry a 5 pound laptop. Its not exactly a burden.

5 pounds is pretty heavy.
