I looked up the numbers out of curiosity. The X1 Carbon has a i7-8650U processor which does about 26 GFlops. The Cray-1, the classic 1976 supercomputer did 130 MFlops. The Cray-1 weighed 5.5 tons, used 115 kW of power, and cost $8 million. The Cray-1 was used for nuclear weapon design, seismic analysis, high-energy physics, weather analysis and so forth. The X1 Carbon is roughly equivalent to 200 Crays and (according to the previous comment) displays animated emojis with some effort. I think there's something wrong with software.
