Continued thread
I'm writing about this for PC World now, so I reached out to Amazon for comment on this. I also reached out to Lenovo to see if they know what laptop configuration this might be.

The MSI Summit 13 AI+ Evo is among the last of a dying breed of Windows device. The compact mid-range 2-in-1. It has a 13-inch display, a 360-degree hinge, and ships with a stylus. Devices like this are less popular today as 14-inch and 16-inch laptops are now the trend.

PCWorldI'm blown away by this MSI laptop's incredible 21-hour battery life!The MSI Summit 13 AI+ Evo doesn’t score high marks in performance benchmarks, but it does achieve superb battery life.
From my perspective, the #RyzenAI HX 390 MAX series has a very bad value proposition over $1,000.
- For #Gaming, you have RTX 4060M **LAPTOPS** at $800 with a decent CPU.
- For #AI, you can make a good PC for $1,500.
- For battery life, there is a thing called a MacBook.
That's probably why they're not being pushed to the market so hard. Pricing wise, it doesn't make sense.
In order of recommendation:
- $1,200+ Laptop with an RTX
- $700 Legion Go / $800 ROG Ally X
- $500 PlayStation 5
- $400 Steam Deck
- $300 Xbox Series S
That's is for gaming appliances in 2025. Hopefully things change for the better Q4 2025, but no #PCGaming until then.
How Xbox should name their first Xbox-Compatible handled?
- What problem do you have?
- It gets very hot, and fans are very loud.
- What's the brand of the laptop?
- NEMO
- Nemo? Like in "Finding Nemo?"
- Yes
- Not Acer, ASUS, MSI, Lenovo... just "NEMO"?
- Yes, I 've already told you.
- Are you sure madam?
- Yes, very sure.
- And... how do you know is "NEMO"?
- When I turn it on it reflects the brand on the wall.
I'm just going to put here Pattrick Kennedy thougths from ServeTheHome about the #BoltGraphics Zeus:
The big elephant in the room is NVIDIA and the CUDA ecosystem. That's is going to be really difficult to break without something that disrupts the market.
ServeTheHome · Bolt Graphics Zeus The New GPU Architecture with up to 2.25TB of Memory and 800GbEThe upcoming Bolt Graphics Zeus GPU architecture offers up to 6x 800GbE links and 2.2TB of memory on a 500W TDP GPU
The "D" is for "Disappointment" in #AMD. The cheers lasted a day or two. Now they're back into upselling #RTX.
I expect this being their last high-end gaming card of the decade. I can see them focusing on anything below $500, because over that it's all NVIDIA territory.
I have more hopes on Intel rather than AMD at this point.

I think I may buy another Semi-Vertical Mouse.
I am trying to get used to the Logitech Ego M575. The ball is not the issue, my hand placement, maybe. I either keep clicking on the back button, which is located as part of the left click button, or if I move my hand further away, resting my hand I tend to easily right-click (the slightest weight does it).
A semi-vertical mouse, you can let your hand rest upon, as opposed to a vertical mouse, which has you almost gripping the mouse. Attached is a photo example of a semi-vertical (what most of my mice usually look like). It is more of an angle, than truly vertical.
I would be curious about getting one with a ball, still. I do like that I am not needing to move the mouse.

I paid the extra money to buy myself a Logitech Ego M575.
A lot of people recommended this mouse when I kept mentioning that I often have mice die on me. I am now questioning if people who suggested this mouse, actually ever used this mouse, or understood my issue.
The scroll wheel, the middle button / wheel, between the left and right button of most PC mice, is what normally dies on me. And when people recommended the ball, I wrongfully assumed, the ball could be used for scrolling. That is not the case, the ball is used for the pointer and the mouse remains stationary.
I presume most people must have been thinking, I could just click on the scroll bar and then use the ball. The goal is never to use that scroll bar and just infinitely scroll via the mouse. That is why I depend on the scroll wheel.
So far, the mouse works - I just got it yesterday. I guess I'll see how long this mouse last.

Ouch, the out of MSRP the #RX9070XT will become just an NVIDIA upsell.
I firmly believe the #RX9600 will be great if it lands at around $299 and trades blows with the #RTX4060. That's how you break the market.
Otherwise, I will heavily recommend a #PlayStation5 for your gaming dosis, or an #XboxSeriesS for #GamePass.
My guess is that #RX9070 will sell bonkers as long it follows its MRSP of $599.
Again, AMD is subsiding the card and not every card will be available at MSRP, which is a bummer.
The GPU market is bonkers and I'm glad that AMD will no longer fight the higher end and rather start pursuing the $300 markup.

I wouldn't recommend someone a device 4+ years old, but the #AppleM1 is my only exception.
It's incredible how this machine still holds to this day, and second hand makes it a killer proposition.
I know 8GB and 256GB won't be enough for demanding people, but for the average user, it will, at least for starters.
Dude, if you're selling a Mini PC with an RTX that costs $100 less than a laptop with an RTX, I'm going for the laptop.
«Stop buying NVIDIA and their overpriced cards!»
Unless AMD disrupts the market like Intel is doing it with the #B570, I expect another year with this list being all NVIDIA.
Answer: yes.
People are willing to pay $2,000 for the best gaming GPU in the world.
Don't like it? A console will welcome you with open arms.
