Would be interesting to know the price of these Intel-based systems (at launch) to get the full extent of this comparison, especially for the most recent ones.

It will be the affordable 4xxx mobile APUs capable of AAA gaming at 720p or even 1080p a great opportunity for cheap and good liGNUx or Chromebooks laptops - if some MBs come with coreboot - and even MS WOS will run well on those machines to come.
And if someone makes game boxes - Steam Machines - with them will make money.

If the crossed out price is to be believed, it normally sales for $599.

Coincidence? Aliens.

You can shop smarter by knowing where resellers like Walmart are getting their laptops. ODMs often sell the same white label laptop to multiple resellers who will then reskin and rebrand the laptop as their own. By shopping around different resellers, you can often find the exact same laptop under different names but at cheaper prices.
They are out of mainland China (contrast with common Taiwanese ODM Clevo). But they also make laptops for brands like Schenker, Maingear, CyberPower, and Insignia (Best Buy).

So for fun last night I decided to benchmark my System76 Lemur i3-5010U and my Gigabyte Brix-Pro i7-4770R against the tests in the last article about this laptop. What I learned was, that my laptop is shit. But I barely use it and it does what i need to do so no need to upgrade. Now the Desktop on the other hand, that needs an upgrade. Sure it won pretty much all the test, but just only being slightly faster on single threaded tests suck and the multi-threaded tests scaled about as expected for 4/8 vs 2/4.
Here are the results if anyone is interested https://openbenchmarking.org/result/...HU-2002039HU32
