gollark: The laptops have issues with cooling because they just slap hotter CPUs in and keep them pointlessly thin, and are unrepairable.
gollark: I mean, their phones have some good points:- amazing CPUs- shiny- 5 years of software updatesbut many bad ones:- not very durable- weird notch in screen- excessive amount of cameras- insane pricing- very locked down OS- needlessly big screens
gollark: I probably could, it would just be bad.
