- lykr0n 8y agoBuy one on ebay and have them ship it, use a forwarding service, ask a state side friend to buy one and ship it to you, or take a quick vacation and pick one up. EDIT. It would be 3% PayPal fee + Cost of shipping ($50 or so) is you asked a friend to do it.
- Symbiote 8y agoDell offer a choice of local or US keyboard: https://www.dell.com/en-uk/work/shop/laptops/xps-13-9370-laptop/spd/xps-13-9370-laptop?~ck=bt&appliedRefinements=301 https://www.dell.com/en-uk/work/shop/laptops/xps-13-9370-lap... This is probably a better plan than importing something without paying taxes. If Brexit happens, there's still Ireland for an English Dell website in the EU. (Like most other European layouts, the British/Irish one will mean the ISO layout rather than the American (ANSI) layout. Other than the additional key giving space for £ and ¬, there's not much difference; so you might prefer that if you want to keep a vertical-shape enter key.)
- dsego 8y agoThere's a 9370 on mindfactory.de, doesn't say it's the dev edition, but the os is specified as Ubuntu. And the exact configuration I want, i7 16/512 FHD. The price seems ok, the only flaw being the german layout with the vertical enter key.
