  I kinda agree with this, even if the author could clarify the real difference between a 1200$ and a 4000$ windows laptop nowadays. Microsoft Windows does not seem to care anymore about building a trusty product for professionals, but as a indie game developer I could say this is the only real OS we really have for now, especially if you really want to target the main audience...

  Sad.

  Bought a windows "gaming" (i hate this category, makes no sense at all...) recently and I agree with the statement of weird and non-sense design in it.

  What is the purpose of putting inside some powerful components if you can't even enjoy the max speed when unplugged?

  Are "gaming" laptops the new desktops?
