Great advice. Since OP wants a 13" notebook with a high res display, he might want to look into getting a 13" retina MacBook Pro. In Italy, that model costs Euro 1530, which is in the same range as the DELL he bought. OP: if you can swing it, get yourself a Mac and see if you enjoy using it. If you don't, you can return it if when DELL fixes your notebook. Also, there are 12 Apple Stores in Italy. If you happen to live near one, service and support is a lot easier and more direct. http://www.apple.com/macbook-pro/features-retina/ http://www.apple.com/retail/storelist/ |

In comparison, the Dell one is €1400. €300 is a significant price difference IMO. Of course, they're not entirely the same. The Dell one still has a better CPU, the Apple one has a higher res display. The Apple one obviously comes with OS X, which could mean an extra €100 for a Windows license if he really needs it. Then again, his site [3] indicates that his previous computer was a Macbook which he ran Linux on, so I guess it's irrelevant.
