As some might know, apple is currently adding tamper-resistant screws to their products: iPhone and the current MBP battery. Clearly Apple wants to control our hardware from the second we buy it, to the moment we want any sort of servicing/changes.
When the new MBP comes out, assuming there is an optical bay, I am planning on swapping it out with a SSD and adding a 750 or 1TB drive for data. However, I am wondering if perhaps Apple might in the new MBPs add more tamper resistant screws to make this job much harder.
Although no one knows what the new MBP has in store, is this something that is likely to happen? I know ram and hard drives are meant to be user-replaceable, but what about optibay replacements? Would this surprise anybody?
