Re: Dell must be glad it's still in that game.
That might be true but reality tells a different story. I reminded everyone that laptops have outsold desktops for many years now, regardless of the GPU fight hype, and was heavily downvoted.
As younger people go more urban their living spaces generally shrink due to cost of living. So fewer and fewer people generally have the space for a desktop computer; add in the "work from anywhere" mantra and I simply never see desktops making a huge comeback in the consumer space (business will always have a good market).
Even if margins are smaller, the manufacturers have no choice because it is what the modern user generally wants. Now, I've been sacrificing (desktop) power for (laptop) portability for at least 30 years now - I have *always* both believed, and said out loud, that data in your hands when you need it is 100x more important than greater power that is sitting miles away from you on your desk.
Modern users have (from my perspective) finally embraced that [truth], so I'm thrilled that companies are finally putting as much development cycles into powerful laptop designs instead of making [us] second-class citizens. I only waited 2+ decades for this :-D
So I'm on the cheerleading side here. YMMV.
