The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    Hey,
    I was wondering whether it was worth waiting for it till next year. Will the performance boost from this release be significant toward a machine used for work and moderate gaming?
    As well, does anyone know whether this platform is specifically targeted toward enterprises? Or will they be available in the "for home" laptops?
    When do you guys think it'll be available after its forecasted release in April next year?
    Thanks for you inputs in advance!

    I would first check out this article

    Most people will tell you that if you need a notebook now, buy it now. If you don't, then don't buy one. Tech is constantly improving, and if you were always to wait for the latest, you would never get anything at all.
