Looks interesting. I have a Dell Latitude E6320 (my second one because they're great). Here are the features that are cool in my opinion: * SIM card slot for 3G (remove battery to place and forget). * Magnesium & aluminum. * Very good plastics for keyboard (short travel for digits, springy, dense, slightly concave). * 180° opening (you can set it flat, very practical). * HDD removable without opening the case. 4 small screws and the HDD is free, you just have to pull it to disconnect. Very useful. You just plug it back and screw. * DVD drive removable without screws. You just press a mechanism and pull the drive from the laptop. * SD reader. * Ability to pop out the keyboard without opening the case, for cleaning. * Hardware switch to kill wireless card (because turning it off and back on again is just one of those things you'll still have in flying cars). * Can install a 'double battery' instead of the normal one. * It's 13.3". This size is great. It's not a 12", which I find small and it's not a 14" which I find big (my laptop goes with me everywhere in all positions). I find these features very desirable, hence my reluctance to buy other laptops (can't use Lenovo / Dell Inspiron / HP Pavillion to save my life.). I haven't checked their XPS series yet.

I find the business machines in today's market far above any consumer devices including the MacBook (Pro) in durability, reliability, expandability, etc. I have a ThinkPad and haven't found the need to switch to something with a poor quality hinge (e.g. MBP), poor quality keyboard (in my opinion almost everything except a ThinkPad), poor expandability (again almost every non-business machine), etc.

  People who work in auto shops love the ThinkPad to the point it's probably the only model they buy. It's the AK-47 of laptops. It apears there's little dogfooding in products, whether laptops or cars. Design flaws that just nag you right from the first use that make you wonder if people who work at laptop or car manufacturers use laptops and drive cars.
