I've been seeing a lot of "Who is this for" remarks regarding this extremely expensive and over the top laptop. Case in point:

It's been pointed out by many that it's geared toward content creators. I am personally a Game Dev, and having to be tied down to my desktop just to run Unreal Editor is a pain. Anyone who's used unreal (or any game engine) knows that 2 monitors is a necessity.

The expense will pay itself off in the long run off the content created with it. This is why it's a content creators machine. The same reason someone might buy an expensive 3D printer or embroidery machine, the tool helps facilitate one's business.

I look forward to reporting back how the Duo changes my work life balance.
