M1 Max operates with a peak of 50W. With a top performance difference of let’s say 20% (unattainable by Intel), I care more about having a computer that runs at 50W tops than a water boiler at 150W.

It’s fascinating to me that society was willing to accept laptops that could not safely be used on a human’s lap for so long. My ‘old’ 16” MacBook Pro could probably cook an egg.

Isn't that a part of the reason why many times they were marketed as "notebook PCs" instead of "laptops"?

if your electric kettle is only 150W then it must take you a long time to make tea.
