Redditors discuss NVIDIA's CUDA moat accelerating sales of RTX Spark (GB10) laptops aimed at running LLMs locally: the 128GB unified-memory configurations (such as the Surface Laptop Ultra variant) are already out of stock, and the cheapest option at Micro Center is the Asus ProArt P14 at $6,499. CUDA's lock-in effect is now showing up in consumer AI hardware.
