I went to buy a Ryzen 7/Vega 10 laptop from Dell last Thursday. By Friday, it was gone, and only Ryzen 5/Vega 8 laptops are available, even for the 17" Inspiron. Not "Out of stock" gone, but "This product doesn't exist" gone.
Lenovo makes one with only 12Gb of RAM, Asustek's effort is 8Gb, a single channel. AMD makes the best integrated CPU/GPU for laptops but you cannot buy it anywhere.
Commentary elsewhere is that Intel is leaning hard on builders not to use the Ryzen 7/Vega 10, or if they use it, to put it in an otherwise shitty spec box that cripples it.
That last sentence sounds a lot like anti competitive behavior by Intel. On the bright side it bodes well for AMD that their chipsets are causing this type of response from Intel but it sucks that this may be driving the lack of AMD laptops available to consumers.
