If you get a new laptop, get a X1 carbon. It's linux-friendly, light and has a really good keyboard.

It's also larger and has a lower res display than the notebook OP chose. But maybe, after his experiences with DELL support, he would be willing to settle for that.

You restrained yourself from pointing out that it's "an" X1 Carbon. Good job.

It's more expensive and with lower res, unfortunately
