A quick announcement on Ars Technica -- the Lambda is nVidia CUDA, Linux beast laptop with very nice Razer design.

The Razer design is nice, but as someone with a blade who's battery bulged within only a year of moderate use because cooling was clearly an after-thought to looking good, I wouldnt be quick to trust it.

Then again, maybe they've improved since then. Mine was a 2019 model after all.

so it’s not just me! twice replaced a bulging battery so bad it caused the trackpad button to stop working.

Something to be wary of: Razer has a bad reliability reputation, in conjunction with bad customer support. The glowing remarks usually come from people who Razer has a vested interest in pleasing.
