I don’t really like the laptop compromise. Where you’re trading performance (and maybe reliability) for mobility. This laptop seems like a good attempt at making the compromise less bad, but, I’ve gone back to desktops instead.

I’ve found that the majority of my work is always at my desk so I switched my main machine to desktop. It’s much, much more upgradeable/repairable than a laptop can be. I still keep a laptop for when I can’t be there but mostly just use it to remote into the main machine so it doesn’t have to be from this decade.

I’m looking forward to the moment I can plug a keyboard into my phone and connect into an EC3 instance or something like that and not worry about hardware at all.
