Why/User Benefit/User Problem

The ferrite beads due to their location on the power adapter for the Oryx Pro (Gen 3) get caught on lapboards and can be a nuisance to portability.

Description of the feature

Remove ferrite beads from ac/adapters for this new laptop. If you are unable to totally remove both ferrite beads perhaps you could at least relocate the bead closest to the laptop itself farther down the cable so that it wouldn't intrude on lapboards and the like.
