    So ready for them to become e-waste.

    Can you imagine the possibilities on re-purposing these if they get cheap enough to experiment with after the company goes bankrupt.

      there’s likely very little experimentation needed… ripping the panel out and attaching an HDMI controller from aliexpress to it would likely be extremely straight forward

      apple is one of the most proprietary companies in existence and you can do this easily with ipad screens and generic controllers… the same goes for most panels: there’s really not that much difference in the actual “expensive” part, and afaik very little you can do to protect it from this kind of thing
