Too bad it doesn't have Ultra 9.
What a massive divide.

$1400 out the door for the p16. Missed out on the $1029 deal.
- AMD vs Intel (comparison looks almost the same)
- 64 vs 96 gb RAM — 64 will suffice but 96 is amazing , esp for future proofing.
- 4K screen (60hz) vs 3k IPS (120Hz)— not sure whats better for software dev, reading. I believe IPS is better but 4k(oled) is good for multimedia but you have the risk for oled burn in.
- 14.5" vs 16" screen — 16" is better for my usecase.
Thoughts?

AMD vs Intel -- personally, it kinda doesn't matter to me. Intel has had so many issues behind the scenes, I'd rather throw my hat in with AMD if given equal choice. Plus everything Intel I've had in the past 5+ years has been running HOT. Anything AMD has been fine. This may not be the case with this machine.
For reading text, I'd go with IPS all day long. OLEDs have great color but with static text, they're not as great. They are getting better. If you're doing video, OLED is a joy to work with.
14 vs 16: If you're not carrying it around all the time, then I'd almost always go bigger. Unless you can clearly articulate "ugh, that'd be a burden to haul around", then you'll get a better experience with a bigger, better unit.
