Q: WHy does the product say Z13 and have a picture of the X13? and how is this sold out if it JUST got here?

A: Because someone at BB can't figure it out. For example, the 4070 G14 has the video memory listed at 12G, but it's 8. The 4070 Acrymn 13 inch is listed at having a 4050. Note in the specifications on this laptop, it says that it's a 4070. The fact that no one cares is concerning.
