Oh my god...is that a 15" laptop without a number pad being crammed onto the side of the keyboard, thus not forcing all my typing to be awkwardly offset and uncomfortable?

>>XorNot+n9
The ThinkPad X1 Extreme (Gen 3 has just been released) is another nice one.

They ruined that by adding nvidia. All 15" ones usually do. Precision 7550 is the rare 15" laptop that lets you configure it to your heart's content without nvidia, but it has the numpad.

I think there are plenty of people doing machine learning, deep learning, ray tracing on the go that might appreciate such laptop.

All the ML stuff needs linux (or wsl if you are so inclined), and nvidia + laptop + linux = bad combination.

>>bubble+Pp
Why does that combo go wrong in a laptop?

>>tinco+tv
Because nvidia optimus drivers are not open sourced and a huge PITA in some linux distros/desktop environments who wish to stay as FOSS as possible.

Not a problem on desktops since they don't have optimus but on laptops without a proper optimus implementation for linux you'll end up with your 1660TI or whatever running at full blast with just your terminal opened, killing your battery in no-time and turning your laptop into a frying pan.

That's why linux devs prefer no nvidia dGPUs on their laptops.
