I'd love to own one, $600 is not bad, that's like the price of a single video card, and for what I do on pc, retro gaming and web browsing/light multimedia, seems like a sweet deal.

Is there official pricing info released somewhere? I thought they had been quiet on it due to the RAM crisis.

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Nothing yet, just went off a gaming blog article for a guess at the price.

I expect this to be at a minimum $1000, but I hope I'm wrong

Yeah if it was 600 dollars It would be day one for me but with the current market situation ram / prices , ai fuckery I see no way thats gonna be the price.

For the use cases you describe you could get by comfortably with a $100 used thinkpad T470 or T480 from ebay.

I know because that's basically all I do. A surprising number of games run fairly well.

On the rare occasion that I really want to play something needing a GPU I'll grab a month of gforce now.
