I've been holding out on buying a gaming laptop for some time and missed a few deals.
I was shooting for under $1K, but will take this as it would probably be good for years, right?

I'm holding out for the next generation of CPUs.
If 5000 series truly is that much better, can always return. Costco has an excellent return policy.

#2. It has a 50 minute battery life on battery and probably less than half its performance.
#3. An Apple M4 Pro runs circles around the flawed 14900HX
#4. What's the point of non portability?
Still plugged in wize it might be better than my Desktop 3080 Ti
I'd bite at $2,000
But in terms of "gaming" laptops this is an absolute nightmare and I've seen bad ones.
And can you play new games with apple silicone? MacOSX doesn't have many modern games these days. This thing is a game dedicated laptop. It's hard to compare it with Macbook. Not everyone likes or wants to use heavily restricted OS like Mac. Next time compare Apple to Apple. There's a dedicated audience for it. Just don't show up in gaming thread and bash gaming laptops. I'll be cool if you compare it to a similar gaming laptop deal.

grow bigger arms; resistance training is essential to help with old age
Still, this thing needs an oled. Nearly 2025, IPS is dead

I don't agree on the oled part, I love oled screens 100 percent but when I buy a 2500 dollar laptop I want it to last, sadly oled will get burned in more or less.
