Right, because Mac users aren't generally known for carrying around this air of superiority by saying things like "everybody wants what I have with my Retina/M1/touchpad gestures/etc." If you like the way text looks on a Retina display just say that. Instead you're here on a thread about a PC product that you'll probably never use, acting like anyone that doesn't have a 4k display must be missing out. (You're right, I must be projecting :) Personally, I like desktop rigs with 1080p, a 5 button vertical mouse and 32-64gb of RAM in a quiet private office. I don't optimize for working on planes, trains and in meetings even though I do own a PC and Mac laptop as well... Look at all the top listings here though- they're all FHD. Nobody cares about 4K on a laptop display - https://www.amazon.com/s?k=laptop&ref=nb_sb_noss https://www.amazon.com/s?k=laptop&ref=nb_sb_noss

I see two on the top page with 2k. But none with >16GB RAM and they’re all Windows - guess only egotistic people want Linux and 32GB RAM? Some people do make use of a higher res screen, just because you don’t doesn’t make it useless. I haven’t wanted or owned an Apple computer for 10 years.

  > ... none with >16GB RAM and they’re all Windows - guess only egotistic people want Linux and 32GB RAM? Huh? Hardly anybody sells Linux laptops, mostly not on Amazon either. I think you'll be hard pressed to find many laptops pre-configured with 32GB RAM on Amazon too. > Some people do make use of a higher res screen, just because you don’t doesn’t make it useless. Okay, but the person I was responding to said that 4k is "table stakes". It's clearly not. Point being - not everybody wants a 4k screen. I didn't say that they were useless to everybody, I said that essentially "most people don't want or need them".
