Then ordered keyboard folio for $40 and cover case for $10.
Not too shabby. Going to be using it for videos, reading sheet music off it, Possibly even running reaper on it with my MAudio interface for some recording using Neural DSP Archetype GOJIRA. We'll see how well that holds up.
Otherwise it seems to be a fantastic piece of tech boasting specs at this price, I'd love to jump on. Thoughts?
Also, I wonder why they skimp on laptop webcams. Would it cost so much more to add a 1080p webcam to a top-spec laptop? Cheapo phones come with at least 1080p front facing camera and 2-4 rear cameras. Why's it so hard to do that in a laptop? #rant

Apple has complete control over their ecosystem, they basically just decided X86 was obsolete and decided to transition arm. They aren't really designing new Intel computers anymore. Microsoft doesn't have that control, OEMs will continue making X86 laptops for the foreseeable future .
I can't imagine arm windows becoming the norm within the next 5 years.
I actually was going to go with an arm laptop, but Microsoft isn't even trying to get things compatible. Case and point, they haven't even tried to put out arm versions of the games they publish.

Edit: I am not talking about OP laptop. I am talking about the one this guy I quoted is buying.

Edit: My mistake, didn't see this is responding to a comment.
The Intel Core i7-1185G7 is a mobile processor with 4 cores, launched in September 2020. It is part of the Core i7 lineup, using the Willow Cove-U architecture with BGA 1449.
The fourth generation of Surface Laptop launched on 13 April 2021.
So this could be 3y and 2m old worst case.
To put things in perspective, Apple M1 was launched November 10, 2020.
