Likewise - I bought one laptop with "Optimus" in 2013 and swore to never do so again. I sometimes have to break out the desktop or rent a server but I have never regretted going iGPU only.
- webdevver 1y agowow lots of us burned by the same thing apparently! clever hardware suffers the burden of having lots of edge cases spread across a small customer base. going for dumb hardware that has lots of buyers is less exciting but statistically more likely to "just work". for me: from now on, its either lenovo business laptops (which sell probably 10s of millions of enterprise users), or macs (which sell the same.) volume > being clever p.s. infact, even the lenovo TB docks are a bit shaky. ugh, more cleverness! i think sticking to their proprietary docks would have been the better play. with their volume, it would have made a better product.
