Really? I personally dont see how the power of a laptop has anything to do with things like weight, or contruction.
Please tell me what these other axis of power are? In my opinion computer power means one thing, how fast it can perform a workload.

If your laptop is powerful but has poor battery life, loud fans, and overheating/throttling problems, then it’s not a good laptop for a lot of use cases.
These are common complaints for workstation laptops from other brands, and also for MacBook Pros back when they used high-end Intel CPUs and dedicated GPUs.
I agree that Apple did a terrible job of cooling their laptops and causing throttling, however that is not common elsewhere.
They did not claim Apple laptops are the most powerful or fastest, but those are the claims you keep arguing against.
Attempting to further clarify the meaning of words and sentences doesn't seem like a productive use of either of our time. I welcome you to go back and read the comments in question and compare the specific wording used with the wording you keep using to dispute them.
Have a good one.
It takes two to tango, and I am only defending my opinion and trying to clarify the meaning of the OP. You seem very concerned with what I think and my opinion about semantics. Sorry you had to go, I had lots more to say that would have no doubt interested you.
I think continuing to explain the same thing to you - that OP did not say Apple laptops are the fastest or most powerful laptops - is pointless when you continue to fail to acknowledge it. You are arguing against a thing that has not been said, at least in this immediate thread as far as I can tell. This has been pointed out multiple times, so pointing it out again doesn't seem particularly fruitful.
You are correct that Apple laptops are not the fastest or most powerful laptops on the market. Neither I nor the original OP I was attempting to clarify said that they were.
Your previous apology is accepted but I would prefer if you stopped saying that people, including myself, said things which they did not. Having to continuously clarify my own words when you change them is exhausting.
> the devices are now actually far superior
> Apple buyers are now people who just want a bloody powerful laptop
> The power buyers
And my point is that its not the laptop with the most powerful compute, which is true. so what are you getting at?
And so the Apple marketing magic has worked on you too.
'Good' is subjective, however I assure you there are faster and more powerful laptops on the market.
You don't see that the point which you are arguing ("that its not the laptop with the most powerful compute") is not actually in conflict with any of those quotes?
