It will be helpful for many people, but this takes away all the fun of the hobby for all of the enthusiasts.
for that reason, this concept will never take over as the status quo, but it could certainly enjoy a space in the consumer market.

I can't help but feel that this is taking a page out of the Razer modular PC concept.
Same kind of tool-less interconnects.
Same concept of mixing and matching whatever you need, as you need it.

Razer is like the Apple of the PC gaming industry.
A lot of what they do is less innovation and more polish, but boy do they get a good shine on.


IMHO, builder culture will never die, (if/when this modular technology becomes mainstream) because people just love tinkering with stuff
