It is actually available to buy right now. The Xps 13 developer edition is not available and the Windows edition has different hardware which is not Linux compatible (WiFi).

Excellent I've been trying to buy one for a while. Now to find it in the UK site...
>different hardware which is not Linux compatible (WiFi).

link? I heard they had crappy broadcom chipsets but would be good to get some specific info.

TBH the sites i looked at last night seemed to say the current hardware that ships with windows is well supported...

It used to be that you had to use Windows to update the bios and that grub didn't work so dual boot was not possible. Also broadcomm.

Glad if that has changed!

Can't speak for the xps13 but I got a xps15 (Windows, no Linux option) about 6 months ago and everything works as expected.
