for example overpriced to me means there are cheaper options with that video card, cpu, and ram... and obv 18" chassis, and afaik i know not much even comes closer
vs, not worth it, because it's missing something that is crucial to you specifically. i think those are 2 different things, and for example... i have few deal breakers, such i need number pad on my keyboard, so others that don't have it, are simply excluded, no matter how cheap they are.

Agree
Overpriced vs expensive
2 separate things
July deal on HP Omen 5090 was $2,200-$2,400.
Nvidia has condition people pay more for less vram
Let me explain:
You wrote 3 sentences... "Show me a 5090 legion then I'll shut up. Until then this is pretty good on price. Please don't respond."
First sentence reads like you don't think a 5090 Legion even exists, so you're challenging someone to show you one.
Second sentence reads since there isn't a 5090 Legion, this deal is a good price.
Third sentence, you end by asking the person you were addressing to not respond.
Now that you explained what you wrote, I get it, but that's not what you wrote.

This is a gaming laptop, a Mac isn't. Different use cases for the majority of people.
this 5090 may say is slightly below desktop 5080.
Dang, I thought that was the whole gimmick of the area 51 model
Over priced as in 3k is far too much for a 90 series anything. If you don't own a house and earn over 100k a year, you should not buy this. It's okay though team green will stop making consumer gpu's so we won't have to worry about poor slow fools rewarding companies like this.
100K in one city is like 10K in another. And "own a house?' Owning a home is not an bellwether of financial wellness (unless you own it outright or close to it). In 2025 a large percentage of people are 'house poor' while others enjoy huge disposable incomes while renting. And if $3000 is going to ruin you.....you are probably a few days away from the sheriff kicking you out of that house your bank never stopped owning.
Tell me you still live with your parents without telling me you still live with your parents
