I bought a xps 13 last week instead of the new MacBook. I was kinda worried if it would be any good but it really is beyond expectations. Great touchpad, pretty decent keyboard and a great screen. And for half the price. It makes me consider replacing more of my Apple hardware. I know, I'm just some guy, but I think more will consider or did what I did.

What make and model did you end up with?
I bought the most specced out one I could get here. 16gb ram, 512 ssd and i7 developer edition with the touch screen.

Ordered it with ubuntu, because I hope that helps to have Dell decide to continue making the developer edition. Installed fedora though, which just works without the need for extra drivers.

Got it in silver but applied a matte black skin from dbrand which makes it look pretty awesome.
