The only thing missing now is a Strix Halo based workstation laptop.

Yup, hopefully coming later this year.

Also, there was some news that Dell was working on more standardization of Alienware desktop, for the latest model. So if the set up is standardized, then they can offer AMD CPU with V-Cache at some point.

Going back to the "Pro" line of laptops, which lists 12 models, 2 of the 12 are not CoPilot compatible (Raptor Lake) and a Dell rep said that Dell is planning move to only CoPilot compatible offering for business, so the 2 Raptor Lake models may not be offered for too much longer.

Which would result in 5 Intel and 5 AMD models offered.

100% marketing fluff, zero substance

it's just some very bad laptops sold at 3 times the price they're really worth... nothing else

also "alienware" always was an expensive gimmick to woo teenagers, both m16 m18 are too heavy too big too expensive

Some thought this day would never this day: Dell commercial PC with AMD processors.

But it came 2 months too late, since my company told me to pick-up a replacement laptop in February, so I had to go with RaptorLake HX as we are only using Dell laptops (sad thing is it was even too early for Arrow Lake). Now I wonder if it catching on fire would be in the end a good or bad thing...

Sorry but those offerings are horrible. Those prices are at least $500 too high.

Did you see the prices of Intel based notebooks? For example, 16 GB model for $2100?
