I recommend the thinkpad t or x series over the dell xps 13.

- XPS 13 is going to look way better, have better screen. But - Thinkpad, more comfortable keyboard, more ports, you don't mind throwing it around, and it's cheaper.

You can currently get a Thinkpad x13 AMD for about $750, tax included and it'll do all you need, minus playing games.
