It's exactly the same with phones. We're headed into some strange sort of world now.

that's a smaller market
a market for corporations into the corporation market

What's the point of a laptop that is not thin and light?

I prefer more ports
why do I have to like whatever you bought from the marketing
Easton Perry
Tim Apple made it normal to have shit io
other companies realized thin and light and little customization increases profit margins
Isaac Garcia
Lies. My Aero 15 has loads of ports, most of them i'll never use.
Noah Ramirez

just don't catch aids ok

>gayman laptop
Lmaoing @ your life choices. Just buy a fucking desktop for a fraction of the price, you clueless moron. And with all the money you saved, buy a decent laptop for work.

Try reading the post again.

Because laptops are meant to be portable computers and the market has largely decided that 13" laptops that are about 3 pounds are ideal.
James Diaz
I can't even find a new laptop these days that still has a DVD drive built in.
Jason Bell
Weren't there a whole genre of 17" laptops called "desktop replacement" that weren't focused on portability? Are they ded now?
Caleb Lee
Why would you want that? In the rare case you're using DVDs, you can get an external drive. Hell, people remove those DVD drives to install another HDD.
Blake Perez
I highly recommend clevo laptops (and their resellers like Eurocom, Sager, etc). They have quite a few models that aren't super thin and have high-end specs, but without the "gaymur" aesthetic.
Isaiah Fisher
They're still around

>12lbs
Jace Miller
Why would anyone want that? At this point, just get two PCs. Hell you can get for 7K

>1K worth of RGB lights.

Because in a laptop with an optical drive you can install another hdd or ssd in it, laptops that don't have OD get fuckall in place of it
Gabriel King
wrong, I have a Dell Rugged tablet-laptop thingy and has fuckall ports. Like a single USB and HDMI and that's all.

Those thin and light laptops used to be a niche market back in the early years of this decade. They are basically the successors of netbooks. It's very telling how they have taken over the laptop segment. The average person just wants something portable to browse the web and do some office stuff like MS Word.
Joshua Morales
They're rather niche devices. I used to own a heavy ass Alienware 15-incher and it wasn't such an issue since I carried it with me in my car anyways.
Hunter Campbell
Thin and light is not a meme
I have a Dell 7285 and I now carry it everywhere without thought

My laptop has an nvme port and I’ve swapped out the included optane drive for a 256gb m2 ssd that is 3000/2000 r/w
Jace Green
I bought a new dell g3 15 for that exact reason. Thanks god it doesn't look like a retard gamer rgb riddled infestation.
I only hope I won't regret buying it, I haven't yet put my hands on it since it's still being shipped.
I honestly didn't even want a gaming laptop but this one was on sale and had better specs than similar normal models.
Maybe I should've waited for AMD models but who knows how long will it take...
Hunter Turner
port selection and upgradability is not a problem if youre not poor but thin laptops have worse cooling but still worth it for lightness
Juan White
why the fuck would you want to carry around a 20 pound gamer laptop
Juan Bailey
Breadknife laptops are thin clients in multiple senses of the word.
Joshua Moore
I fkn wot the cellphone market has never had so many niche products, the only one that's gone is the horizontal sliding keyboard.

>How did it come to this?
Is this not the logical conclusion? This is essentially the only class of consumer portable machines where performance is actually demanded. Mind you, I still think buying a gaming laptop is pretty retarded, but everything else focuses on portability. You know, that's the point of a portable machine. If you have serious performance demands for your work, a desktop is better and that same thing holds true if you have serious performance demands for a hobby too (like gaming). Portables are for taking around with you.

Alienware vs G7? (or g5).
If the G7 is virtually the same price with a newer 20's series card and newer processor, but the ayylmao has a 1070 or 1080, are the things, whatever the fuck they are, that make it "alienware" make it worth it over the "standard dell" regardless?
The glowing alien head?
