> There are some Asus laptops that seem like they'd fit the bill, but they're just so clunky and large, which gets in the way of the portable dream.

Does anyone know which laptops Devin is referring to?

I'm one of those odd guys who love big laptops (I've used 17” models for over a decade now) and I don't care about the weight at all. But I'd love it if I could trade some of those models' performance for more battery life (a reliable 8 hours would be sufficient), and they're never designed for that.

Hey there! I don't remember what laptop I was specifically thinking of when I wrote that (Apologies, I started writing this back in February and got distracted for a number of months) but there is a non-zero chance I was thinking about the Asus ZenBook Pro Duo. Sorry I can't be more specific about past me's thought process :(
