Oh man, I thought the same. I never saw the movie but I read the trilogy. I stumbled across them in a used book fair and something made me want to get them. I thoroughly enjoyed them.

Sorry, I was stating that “much like their laptops, I like the idea of these desktops.” I was not trying to insinuate that they themselves are alike.

Much like their laptops, I’m all for the idea, but what makes this desirable by those of us with no interest in AI?

I’m out of that loop though I get that AI is typically graphics processing heavy, can this be taken advantage of with other things like video rendering?

I just don’t know exactly what an AI CPU such as the Ryzen AI Max offers over a non-AI equivalent processor.

Same. Although I’d love a fully open source, non-electron alternative.
