-[* black] Battery and secondary heat pipe thing
-[* black] headphone jack
-[* black] display
+[* black] Our laptop is feeling a bit like an empty nest with the motherboard removed. Let's see what stayed behind.
+ [* black] The battery's 4 cells add up to 45.2 Wh, roughly the same capacity as in the latest iteration of the [guide|92362|Surface Pro|stepid=173122|new_window=true].
+ [* black] A secondary heat pipe is taped to the back of the case, to help dissipate heat from both sides of the motherboard.
+ [* black] The modular headphone jack, not charged with any crime, is free to go.
+[* black] No Surface product is complete without a hinge, but these feel a little pedestrian compared to the [guide|74448|usual|stepid=150845|new_window=true] offering.
+[* black] And the display is free to live another day.
