this reminds me of the (now discontinued) lambda tensorbook that I bought a few years back. AI computers are interesting because they are extremely similar to really good gaming computers but the marketing (and some of the hardware) is different.

I don't fully understood why they are separate from gaming computers other than marketing, but I am very happy with my tensorbook. I got it when I was very young and impulsive I don't know if I would get it again, although that fact alone speaks to the computer's longevity.



Gaming computers usually run Windows and games. AI computers often run Linux and AI software. The differences require different configurations of both hardware and software.

So, they make products preloaded with configurations for each market segment. The customers pay for all the headaches this saves them of custom setups.


Lambda collaborated with Razer on their last tensorbook in 2022. It was literally a then current Razer Blade running Ubuntu
