I'm excite for my next laptop to have a Ryzen, depending on benchmarks of course.
Desktop ~ 20%
Notebook ~ 15%
Server ~ 4%
AMD/TSMC just can't make enough CPU's to take over Intel in CPU market share even if they win every deal.

@cgartenberg I think you are muddling some things... There are Ryzen processors in the 2000, 3000, and 4000 series that use the tech from the prior generation.
The 3200g for example, is a Zen+ (12nm) processor in the 3000 series...

There are also Zen2 processors in the 3000 series. The processors you are referring to are Zen2 (7nm) processors that are in the 4000 series, that will land ahead of Zen3 (7nm+) later in the year... the article doesn't clearly explain this.
The reason for this is that it takes more engendering effort to always add the igpu to the platform.
The reality is those changes take time, it's not like they took a Ryzen 3700X, dropped it onto a smaller package and called it a day. If that were the case I'd imagine they'd have released it alongside...
The mistake was made during the Ryzen 1000. they called the APUs (CPU with graphics) Ryzen but the CPU cores were not even Zen.
I know that it takes more then putting another name on to create these CPUs. But since they have the same Architecture they should be in the same generation.
Intel's 10th Gen naming annoys me as well. 10nm and 14nm CPUs all under the same naming scheme. The only reason to do this is to confuse uninformed customers.
The 4000 series g and u cpu's should do quite well against current Intel options though.
