The motherboards are often 80%+ the cost of an entire new machine though.

Probably because they include the CPU if I am not mistaken, but probably makes sense and is worth the hassle if your concern is your CPU / main hardware is falling behind.

Does that make sense? Because for another $200-300, you get a new chassis, keyboard, monitor, touchpad, webcam, antennas, and whatever else.

It’s kind of a bad deal.
