This is not 100% true, in 2008 you could have a MB/P and upgrade the RAM manually to have better price/performance then most other laptop manufacturers. Today this looks different looking at the "components per dollar" ratio due to the impossibility to swap yourself. > For example, let’s say your maximum budget is $4000, and you need 64GB of RAM to run those simulations I can get a lenovo for nearly half the price, and it feels good, and runs long enough. The other things are nice to have, but weight and heat come with the territory, if I buy a simulation monster I don't buy a small leightweight lifestyle laptop.
