All of those caveats have, again, not been a thing for decades.
There are some nerds that parrot things without understanding them still hung up on saying these things, though.
Decades? Did they even have gaming laptops in 2003?
Hell yeah. The 2003 Alienware Area 51M packed a Pentium IV, a 1200p grade 15 inch display (apparently with both widescreen and 4:3 configs as options), had both Nvidia and ATI GPU variants and traded punches on performance with contemporary desktop alternatives, albeit at a much higher price.
It also came in a rather snazzy lime green color as an option, just like the desktop area 51 from that year. It wasn't even the only alternative in that type of spec that year.
