On Tuesday, Dell announced a new design concept for a laptop that's long lived, easy to take apart and fix, and takes a smaller toll on the climate. Dell's design team has created a proof-of-concept laptop called "Concept Luna" that has a number of unusual features that are intended to make repair and maintenance easy. No glue or screwdrivers are needed to remove the keystones that hold the broken keyboard and screen in place. The time needed to replace components is reduced by the fact that the entire system contains fewer screws. There is no need to replace a broken fan because the laptop has a shrunken-down board in the top cover. Dell design strategist Drew Tosh described Luna as a "front end concept" intended to "solve some of the larger problems we're trying to get ahead of in the future." A laptop that is easy to repair and upgrade is less likely to be replaced with a new one that takes more energy and resources to produce. When that computer eventually does stop working, parts can be used in other machines rather than being thrown away. It would be more like reuse, reuse, reuse, and recycle when we really have to. There are several prototype versions of this laptop. The design of Dell's new laptop is the same as any in the company's current lineup.
The climate impact of electronics is one of the ideas in Concept Luna. One of the dirtiest manufacturing steps is replaced with a low-carbon alternative when smelted using hydropower energy. Dell says the board could have a 50 percent smaller carbon footprint because it's a quarter the size. The life cycle analysis of the Latitude 7300AE found that the manufacturing of the device accounted for 65 percent of the device's climate impact. Considering Dell's leading position in the global laptop market, this level of carbon cutting on an individual parts basis could translate to significant reductions across the industry. The availability of spare parts for repair is one of the factors that determines how long a laptop will last.
