They laid off thousands of really great people after posting record profits and bragging about moving up the Forbes list each quarter in their "All Hands" NA org sales meetings to those people that moved the needle for them. They ruined thousands of people's lives who relocated and rented or purchased new homes just to join the US sales organization during the digital boom of the pandemic and increase in business for them, forcing them to lose their homes and become homeless. Their warranty process is atrocious and considered terrible by anyone who has had to deal with service claims on top of this.

@@SneakyMrSnake in my opinion, yes. AMD is much more efficient, it can give you the same performance as Intel at half of the energy consumption. At peak performance in games they are matched, but again at much more energy consumption which is very important in a laptop, so the amd version can give you lower temps. And in my opinion yes the last gen is a very good option since there is no new generation of graphics card. So if you can get one in a good discount because of this new generation would be best.
