I insist on a fanless laptop, so performance isn't amazing, but is adequate for many things. Doing a full compile of the Linux kernel is not one of them. It takes MUCH longer on my laptop than on my desktop (which also has 4 times as many monitors as my laptop). I think we are lots of individuals with lots of different use cases, and fortunately the set of available hardware has many different configurations, allowing us all to be reasonably satisfied.
