So, alright, in her defense, I have that particular laptop and a) it’s not that heavy, b) at least the AMD versions can go up to 8-9 hours with the mux switch off, and c) it actually has a great typing keyboard. It is absolutely a kickass mobile workstation, especially if you need the performance to do other stuff like edit video (or game, obviously).
Now, would I have switched the RGB off during court proceedings? Yes, I would have switched the RGB off.
Yeah I actually think this is really cool because buying this sort of laptop, you have to know a thing or two about computers and intentionally buy it. It’s not a default choice, she had a reason to get this specific category of gaming laptop. She’s probably a gamer with a watercooled rig at home, but as a lawyer is often on the go between clients, and she wants to get in on some sidequests and grinds whenever she can.
It’s also possible that she just asked IT to buy her the fastest laptop they could find. I choose to believe that she’s 4th ranked in the world in Destiny 2, though.

She knows it is serious boss battle mode so she needs that rgb for the extra performance boost.

“Jesus that 6-stack just crushed us in the crucible. Clan tag TeamTrump? Top player’s name is BarristerBetty?”
Is it the RoG Strix by any chance?
Yeah, it’s actually the same one I got for college
RoG laptops are legendary for quality, I don’t blame her for having one.
Let’s not go nuts here, either. ASUS software is genuine garbage and there are lots of bad polish details all over the place.
But they make pretty weird, nutty choices that are often unique and cool, so I sometimes put up with their nonsense just for that.
