I feel like I see a fair amount of gaming laptops in the US but a majority of people seem to still game on desktop. I guess what I am looking for is a ratio of one versus the other otherwise a country like China might dominate on numbers alone.

When looking for searching online for this I was mostly coming across pros and cons lists. This isn’t what I am after.

    if you have to pay 20x the minimum wage for a computer,

    Hourly? Daily?

    In America that would be: 150 or 1,200

    But that’s gross, I don’t know how different taxes are.

    But I thought prices were high due to tarrifs? Surely some basic parts could be bought without tarrifs. Especially just the savings of being able to hook up to any TV as a monitor.

    It makes it easier to upgrade slowly overtime to, which helps with the tariffs.

      Minimum wage in Brazil is around $280 per month. So we’re probably talking about monthly wages here.
