How are things on their end these days ? Are Xe graphics better ?

Those were rough times for laptops.

intel u series processors are disappointing, the h series is fine, amd apus are better
but i think modern intel integrated gpus have something which lets you make "virtual" gpus you can pass through kvm and i don't think you have an alternative if you actually want this

they sold CPUs with cuck cores at a premium, so i got a 5800X. x86 big.little was half-baked at the time, seems it has gotten better.
then they released raptor lake, CPUs that kill themselves, so i've lost interest in them.
i hope they give AMD some proper competition soon, but considering their current CEO is a big-time doomer, i doubt it.

My eeepc 1201n fucking burned its self to death and one of the memory modules flat out stop working

poor cheap cooling solutions but "hey lets add a Norton AV license and other slop at the consumer expense" "they don't need a tear drop of thermal paste"

Yeah 2010 was a wild, these specs were the common wallmart laptop you would find, as if they were begging for a external GPU to be shoved in..
>nowadays around the same price you get a atom slop.
wild

I had the intel gma one that wouldn't boot Halo, that thing was INSANELY hot one day the HDD died, probably heating...
