How to Evaluate Cloud vs On-Premise for Each Workload

AI-generated summary
For £3340 ex‑VAT, the ASUS ProArt P16 H7606WW is only really “worth it” if you’re buying into the ProArt story: serious creator or pro workloads where screen quality, sustained performance, and machine longevity actually matter. This is the kind of machine you’d give to a designer, editor, architect, or technical user who benefits from a high-end touchscreen and a workstation-class GPU, not just office staff. If you routinely run demanding creative apps, do heavy renders, or need plenty of fast storage and memory headroom so projects don’t constantly swap, it can be a sensible long-term buy—especially if it’ll replace a couple of weaker machines.
That said, I wouldn’t recommend it as a “general business laptop” or a safe default for most companies. Many teams will get better value from a cheaper workstation or even a high-spec mainstream laptop, unless they’re clearly using GPU-heavy or creator workflows day to day. Also, the Copilot+ angle is only compelling if your users will actually use those AI features in practice—otherwise you’re paying for capability you may never touch. Bottom line: buy it for teams doing real ProArt-class work and who can justify the spend; don’t buy it just because it’s premium.
