      I actually love the fact that it DOESN’T have some tacky leet gamer design like nearly every other gaming laptop

        I’m with you. I was in the market for a new laptop earlier this year and it was surprisingly hard to find something that didn’t look like it was designed by and for a bunch of teenagers. Not that there’s anything wrong with that if that’s what you enjoy, but it’s thoroughly not my style.

      So it’s the perfect sleeper PC that can be procured at work without anyone raising eyebrows because it’s not in-your-face gamer aesthetic

      I think that’s a feature. I find “gaming” laptops with all the red stripes, rgb, stupid angles everywhere, etc. to look very cringe.
      If anything it incentivizes people to buy a separate “work” laptop (for those who might need to buy one themselves) because you can’t show up with that thing at a professional meeting or something like that because it looks ridiculous, juvenile, and in bad taste.
