Laptops *are* closed systems. The laptop market still isn't as componentised as the PC market (even if you get a chassis, the motherboard and monitor come prefitted, and you simply can't replace components the way it was possible with PCs).
It is important to mention here that even though laptops are "closed", standard stuff works out of the box. For example, intel based laptops hardly ever have problems running linux lest you're using their most bleeding edge h/w.
