I have to assume you're referencing Apple, because otherwise, apart from maybe Lenovo, for a good quality decent price machine with at least a semblance of design attention, Dell has been pretty good for something like 8-10 years now (HP: are you listening?). Dell also has a long history of access to and enthusiasm for cutting edge components. If however what you're lamenting is the idea that we have to look somewhere other than Apple these days, then I have to agree with you. Their lineup is truly forgettable in the above-starbucks market, tragic considering the history of the macbook. Maybe just maybe that'll change in October, but then we'll still have to deal with the iOSification of OSX to the detriment of developers. Also I'm a big mech keyboard fan and the rumoured oled bar function key replacement idea does NOT work for me unless they open source it (haha).
