Just a shower thought. Obviously depends on the industry, but in terms of electronics I fee enthusiast grade (think gaming motherboards, for example) are better built than professional grade. Thoughts?

I'd much rather a business grade laptop than a gamer laptop.

Gamer laptop will break in 2 years, business thinkpad will be still going after 10, minimum.

I'm never getting another HP Omen laptop, custom builds are the way to go. Digital Storm, System 76, AVA Direct, Falcon Northwest, and Maingear offer a variety of custom build options for laptops, desktops, and all-in-ones(AVA Direct).

Are these known to last the test of time and are rugged? From what I've seen, the build quality of those mentioned are not quite there. Of that list, which would you say has best quality, fit and finish?

Sorry for the confusion on the first response. I mixed up different posts. From the list, I'd say Digital Storm, Falcon Northwest, and System 76 offer the best build quality, fit, and finish.
