Interesting, but not terribly surprising. The "gamer" is probably choosing something like Alienware, the "Windows power user" / "business user" is probably picking Lenovo, and the general consumer is going cheap.

I will say as a Linux user that these do look damn cool and if I was shopping for laptops, it'd be the frontrunner.

I could be wrong but Razer and Legion seem like stronger gamer brands compared to Alienware these days.

You're probably right, I am not exactly keeping up!

Alienware is still reasonably popular for sure. It’s just not what it was back in the day. I should’ve mentioned ROG as well.

Have the 12" and just ordered the desktop. Top quality and love the mission. Keep them at the top of your list!!
