gollark: However, you could get about the same performance in a thinner thing if you are willing to pay more and probably have horrible cooling problems.

gollark: My laptop is a powerful nonthin laptop (it weighs 2.5kg plus a 1kg charger brick rated for 230W, and the back extends slightly past the screen so they can shove more IO on it) which I got cheaply via methods.

gollark: But yes, something something tradeoffs. You can get powerful thin laptops too, but they cost more than a bad thin laptop or powerful nonthin laptop.

gollark: A desktop is portable, just glue a car battery and 23" monitor to the side.

gollark: Unfortunately, they cost a lot (the M1 is very much not optimized for cost, and Apple like charging lots), run MacOS, and cannot be repaired.
