If I was a student I'd be thinking about the massively increased value proposition of a used machine right now, not about spending north of £3k on a laptop that does the same thing but fractionally faster. Yes there will be some use cases which legit benefit from the improvements, but goodness me that's a lot of money.
Im not a student, and its gonna go through my business anyway but even a little saving can go elsewhere.
Yeah I suppose they might have refined it a little and as you say they will never come out and go we fucked the previous 3k laptop we realeased a year ago.
