The laptop it was replacing was a terrible Asus computer that literally started falling apart and delaminating after about six months. It felt like it would break a bit more every time I touched it. Asus themselves was wholly unwilling to do anything about it, and they acted like I had been juggling with the damn thing when all it ever did was live on my desk or next to my bed.

It was the third Asus computer I had owned that broke way earlier than it had any right to, and I swore a blood oath that I will not buy another Asus product.

Point is, considering how terrible that laptop was, “annoying thermal throttling” was still a considerable upgrade, so I loved it in spite of it.
