4.0 out of 5 stars Heavenly, although not perfect.
Fantastic machine with just a couple problems. 1) VMWare workstation Pro - I have to run a Powershell script to turn off some Windows energy feature messing with the VMWare exe. and 2) In my virtual machines, in Teams, the camera has a hard time connecting, although it eventually does. That said, this laptop is top of the line. Awesome. I love it. I use this machine for work where I program industrial equipment. The speed and screen size are both awesome which results in higher productivity for me.
