They should just use ThinkPad mechanical keyboards with the red dot/trackpoint across their entire range.
Can't justify getting a 8 GB VRAM laptop (maybe a used one for 700), when many games would run much better even on a 384 GB/s, 128-bit, [GDDR7] GPU and when there is news like this that 12 GB VRAM on a 128-bit bus may soon arrive (3 GB per GDDR7 chip are already being using in the 5090 Laptop GPU):

5070 Laptop: 128-bit bus width.
5070 desktop: 192-bit bus width (50% higher bandwidth and 50% faster, but many games at settings where 8 GB VRAM becomes the limit, would run much better if 12 GB VRAM was available).
128-bit/32-bit per chip = 4 GDDR7 chips, each 2 GB = 8 GB VRAM.
192-bit/32-bit per chip = 6 GDDR7 chips, each 2 GB = 12 GB VRAM.
128-bit/32-bit per chip = 4 GDDR7 chips, each 3 GB = 12 GB VRAM.
So is this finally 12 GB VRAM on a 128-bit bus (using the 3 GB GDDR7 density chips instead of the current 2 GB)? Current 12 GB VRAM gaming laptops are mostly big and heavy (and the ones who are not are even more expensive, but they can be more loud because the chassis is smaller (there's no free launch)).
