How to create your own laptop?

Hello. My question is: How to create your own laptop or ultrabook, and sell it. Does a budget of $500,000 allow you to create anything? We have already decided what we want, and how much it will cost approximately. According to approximate calculations, we have no competitors. But we are reaching a dead end. Where to go? Who to call? Who to talk to? In the hardware part, we don't know shit. We know how much it will be (how much memory, what processor), but we don’t know how to connect it all. Maybe there is some kind of factory in China, or something else, where they could help us?

You didn't give the information you want. Do you want to sell ready-made laptops under your own brand, or design a completely new one?
If the latter, then this figure is not even close. Multiply by at least 100, and preferably by 1000.
And to be honest, if you decide to ask this question with such a topic on this resource, then you better not take this case ..

Ask on this forum electronix.ru/forum
Be prepared that gloomy people will not understand your brilliant business plan and will ask unpleasant questions and say unpleasant things. Maybe some of this will be useful.
In my inexperienced opinion, you need to start small. Find laptop manufacturers in China (Taiwan, South Korea) who have a laptop platform, who will agree to slightly change the design of the case for you and sculpt your label. Try to bring them here and sell them here.
It turns out that there these laptops really cost a penny and tangible money here they start to cost because of the difficulties of transporting here, customs clearance and distribution among retail chains.

Such a budget will only allow you to stick your own labels on computers purchased directly from a Chinese manufacturer. Look for factories in China.
And what will be special in this computer and how is it different from others?

Your question sounds something like this, we have a lot of extra money and we don’t know what to spend it on, we came up with the idea of ​​\u200b\u200bbuilding a “laptop” (you can substitute any other word) and selling it, but we don’t fucking understand how they are made. I advise you to first at least google how production is built in general, before contacting any manufacturer with such plans, otherwise there is a risk that you will be sent at best or "deceived" at worst.

Or is it a joke. Or I refuse to believe that people who have $500,000 don't even know where to start. If you succeed, let me know, or better yet, take work with promotion / advertising
