Nvidia is incredibly strict with the laptop and board partners on the design and marketing of the final product.

All the decafs I tried did not taste as good as the OG.

> all advertising is fake nowadays, so it is hard to compete while being honest. Can't blame them.

Not just advertising but most things that are done online, like dating or job applications. You might be the only job candidate with an honest profile, but if the other candidates have fake inflated their profiles to stand out more, then your resume won't pass the ATS screening because the overabundance of inflated resumes raise the bar even for the honest ones.

Competing in the online attention economy is hell. It's like being in rock concert and trying to attract the attention of the bass player from the middle of the crowd. It devolves into a constant numbers-game arms race between those doing the screening and those seeking the attention, while those refusing to take part in it or are playing honestly by the rules, end up loosing the most.

That Macbook Air is 1200 Euros where I live which is way above the price of the most sold Windows laptops according to the public sales data of big retailers here, which seem top hover around the 700-800 Euro pricing.

So no, it isn't cheaper when you look at what people actually buy. It's only cheaper if your data set is full of the unicorn $4k-8k Dell/HP/Lenovo workstations at corpo pricing .
