I know most laptops (MSI included) have done away with the number pad, hoping that one of these two manage to have one otherwise I'll keep my order in for the 2021 Gigabyte Aero 15.

GE76 does have numpad. Or if you prefer something more compact (and less powerful), they have the GS77

Only one Thunderbolt 4 port is a thumb down for me.. I was expecting 2 since we are heading to that direction in the future. Thunderbolt 5 and 6 will be backward compatible with limitations on a TB4 port ofc.. but at least an extra TB4 port would still work if you need it in the future..

Way overpriced at $4000 US dollars.  WTF is MSI thinking??  25% higher price tag ($1000 more vs. $3000 vs. my "old" GE66 with 11980HK and RTX3080 16GB) but will only get about 15-20 FPS increase in performance.  No thanks.  I'll be keeping my laptop a while longer ;-)
