Mostly a tinkerer laptop it is. A regular consumer or hardcore hardware torturer (be it gaming, rendering, programming engines) won't benefit from it.

Can fully support this approach. This is how I learned MSSQL and PHP for web and game server programming, only due to others their coding (and some of them using proper coding language and commenting stuff on behalf of "what did I do here exactly"). Today I can set up an entire server cluster for highly popular and populated games like genshin impact or world of warcraft without any interferences and typical server delay/lag spikes.

Wait for the 5k series, buy 3k or 4k under MSRP. Was always a great deal. You won't even need more performance during that time, as there are only a heck ton of mediocre unity and other type of indie "developed" games out there.

Reply to Honda Electric Moped Coming - Step-through electric likely to be announced this year. by speckz
I will wait for hydrogen engines. Electric motors are way too costly and way to expensive, for the value they do deliver (range per charge). And their image of being pure green is bs.
Downvote me you dumbfs all you want, truth is, battery production in that manner and the size is no where near a green-mark. Hydrogen on the other hand will be more likely more energy efficient in producing it and won't grief nor exploit 3rd world countries for their resources. 🖕
