Sigh, I literally Slack'd Stephen earlier today to not engage on this thread, but now I find myself doing so, too.

Fundamentally, I disagree with you here. I read this as a mentality that excludes unnecessarily. I hope we both can both come to agree that one should not be excluded from computation and computational tools just because they do not know how to install things.

That's actually one of the benefits of economies of scale.

Did you see the downstream comment ? Their's literally a single command that will set up a machine learning environment on Ubuntu.

Regardless, if you can't set it up, how are you going to update it? Do you just buy a new $4,000 computer every time you need to update your machine learning environment?

All I see here is Razer fundamentally selling the same laptop, calling one machine learning, and calling the other gaming. I can't understand how installing Ubuntu, and some machine learning tools is worth a $1,500 markup.
