It's much easier to unscrew and take the back off the Latitudes than the Thinkpads and their hidden plastic clips that you risk breaking. For some reason, even recent Thinkpads are way over-valued on EBay, this is not the case for Latitudes which you can pick up cheap from ex-corporate deployments. The 7390 also has a WWAN slot and you can use any $30 card, not a specific one on the Lenovo whitelist. The battery is also bigger, lasts 10-15 hours dependent on radios/screen brightness. I am a recent Thinkpad to Latitude convert, the Dells are just better, less cost, better hardware, maybe less Chinese malware.
