    AMD now has “Max” chips and Dell now has “Pro” and “Max” laptops.

    Everyone copying Apple.

      AMD has the worst naming schemes in the industry, I miss the simple old i3, i5, i7… for each generation.

        I can’t say Intel CPU naming is better though. The i3, i5, i7, i9 is misleading and the full names are even more confusing than AMD’s.

        Well AMD just blatantly copied Nvidia’s naming scheme for their new GPUs so maybe they’ll copy Intel for their CPUs. I mean, they kind of already did, since the Ryzen 9 is basically i9, and the Ryzen 7 is basically i7 etc. It’s mostly AMDs mobile CPUs that have horrendous names, but Intel really isn’t much better in that department.

      I wish there was a Company that inspired the Design/Build Quality of the Thinkpad for their Laptop rather then Apple.
