Comment on Gaming Laptop with Linux Preinstalled and 32GB+ RAM?
Holytimes@sh.itjust.works 3 days agoLiterally every higher end laptop gets called a gaming laptop… It’s a nothing term. Even the absolute least flashy laptop with no RGB and is basically just a glorified Thinkpad with a 4080 mobile in it gets called a gaming laptop just cause of the 4080.
Saying don’t buy a gaming laptop basically means you can’t buy literally any good high end hardware full stop.
It’s a short sighted and frankly stupid piece of advice that just hurts people.
The Alienware bit tho, that’s spot on. 100% fuck em.

Overpriced, over-hyped consumer hardware that’s loud, obnoxious, and not that much better than significantly cheaper options.
You’re paying for the brand, and a bunch of obnoxious LED lights that are plugged in to every spare inch of the thing.
