There's a ton about WoW technically that is impressive as hell. If you want to know how something is able to be done efficiently/well in terms of tech in a MMO, it's hard to go wrong with looking at how WoW addressed the problem, even today.
Gaming laptops are pretty great honestly - I just found I need a lap pad to use them when not on a solid surface usually. They tend to stay warm even with the dgpu shut off. AMD came out with a pretty nice apu this year that is actually pretty solid at 1080p gaming. It's been super popular - it's in all of those windows handhelds that have launched pretty much. The next few years should see more releases and competition from intel with their arc-based APUs. So...that should be pretty nice IMO. Alternatively, ARM might be viable in the near future - already is IMO if you're on Mac, we'll see about Qualcomm.

So true. Love or hate wow, the way they were able to optimize that game is nothing but a masterclass.
Ill have to start looking at gaming laptops. Im currently running a $300 acer laptop that I picked up for the kids, and it worked so well I bought 2 more for myself and the family. It does just fine for p99 and other classic games like stalker, gothic, wow etc. I need to figure out a good mouse setup for the bed haha. I dont really want to bring in mouse pad everytime i get in, so what i end up using is a book of sorts.
