How well does the touchpad work under Linux? Also, how is the battery life and GPU switching? I'm currently deciding between the XPS15 and waiting for the rMBP refresh, and the XPS15 is seriously tempting.
Battery life is awesome. I could probably go 6-7 hours, haven't tried though as I'm mostly connected.
As for graphics drivers, it's shitty at the moment. There's no native acceleration is I haven't bothered to recompile kernels as it doesn't concern me (it's a work machine).
Someone else will be getting the same machine soon, so I'll wait for him to be my guinea pig.
