Pure, mindless, raging technophilia.

Why should anyone care what chip their laptop computer uses?

It's a guy thing, I guess. Five million years ago, our ancestors were
sorting themselves by the size and color of their reproductive organs.
Today, it's by the speed of their chips and the size of their hard
drives. Some things never change.
