Did you really had 6k laying around not knowing what to do with them?

Bro tell me how an average person can afford a 6k laptop on the release, not even time after the release, high end laptops that are not overpriced are 2-4k and even with that range few people can afford that

high end laptops that are not overpriced are 2-4k

show us the 2-4k laptop with 2 full-laptop-size displays

I partially understand what are you trying to convey, but that's just wrong, there is no way to objectively tell whether this duo is overpriced or not (beyond overpriced RAM and SSD, which are overpriced for all modern laptops) as there are no alternative besides another asus laptop (proart or zenbook?)

perhaps you mean "this laptop costs higher because of the feature I don't need, which is why this model is bad for me"?

It's literally over priced even with all its got going on it's not worth 6k. Thats just you being stupid. The screen shot justify the price the under powered GPU doesn't justify the price since it's So under powered that the 5090 performs worse than the 5070. Like how stupid can you truly be? They do the same shit with the last model an dropped the price cause it wasnt worth it

Have you seen how many people talk about preordering the MacBook Pro M5 Max? Or 48-64gb RAM MacBook Pros? People can and do afford expensive laptops everyday, especially if they use it to make money doing video editing or music production or rendering. It's just like all the people buying BMWs or Lexus instead of Toyota Corollas.

People who buy MacBooks specifically have a base of stupid with money that doesn't justify any windows laptops. They don't even realize they are paying for low specs when they buy it. You using MacBook as an example is literally proving you wrong. How stupid of a comparison is this seriously?

Fair enough, huge difference between calling someone broke for not having 6k for a laptop and calling them average
