Yep, not sure I want a keyboard like the XPS 15 one. It’s a bunch of flat top keys with little travel.
I’m now wondering about the new Precision 15 7000. Keyboard looks normal but no pricing on the site. I still also might try to get away with an E7470.

So much so I can pretty much poke a finger into it when opening the lid and seeing visible electronic componentry shift around. It is currently bound together with masking tape which helps, hence my need for a new lappy :) - Glav From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Greg Low (??????)

We have some E7440’s that have been excellent but are now starting to have some screen separation near the hinges. (Bit surprising really). Otherwise, love them. So, was thinking about the E7470’s but now thinking XPS 15’s. My eyesight would appreciate the 15 inch screen, and the narrow bezel makes it not much larger than the 14 inch units.

I was actually looking at picking one up. I really want a surface pro 4 or surface book but the firmware problems, and mostly the exhorbitant price, turn me away. In addition, the speed at which older models of surface (namely 2 and 3) are simply ditched and no longer made (ie. peripherals/replacements soon dry up) as soon as new models arrive means the life of these units is pretty small. The Dell XPS 15 looks really nice, as does the XPS 13. Both can be grabbed with 16Gb of mem, great screen, touch, and good proc. Haven’t played with one personally though. - Glav From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Greg Low (??????)
