If every single dispenser is a self contained unit, which then is put together in groups of how many different kinds of drink you need? That seems cheaper than having each group of dispensers individually built because all displays have to be wired up to a single computer. This way a single dispenser can be replaced quickly without needing a technician to come or replacing the whole thing.



Only mechanically. You could technically remove the small piece of plastic at the end of the slot, and still put a x16 card in a x1 or x4 slot, should work anyways. Some mainboards even have open-ended slots directly instead of closed ended. Haven’t done it and wouldn’t recommend it, but it would technically be possible.
