I definitely agree at least with the xps13 part however Id recommend against the Dev edition, or at least depending on where you are buying it. When I bought mine (the old one) the "regular" same hardware version cost the same as the Dev edition, but you got a windows licenses as well. And even if you don't use windows regularly it's always nice to have an extra license. Hardware wise I am extremely pleased with the old version and can't really see any indication that the new one should be worse in any way.
