Seth Kontny Fuck I need to buy a new laptop. Cannot decide

😀 Tom Also consider the Dell XPS 13 Developer Edition, though it more expensive. I would buy one for myself if I needed a new laptop today.

Xasasfdasfd I've got a Dell XPS 13 DE from the first round they put out. It's been a serviceable machine, but lots of niggling little issues (trackpad driver flakey, bluetooth intermittent, that sort of thing. These days I'm spending more time on a Lenovo 100S Chromebook repaved with GalliumOS. As a dirt-cheap box that is good enough for editing code, it works.

😀 Tom There 2017 version comes out tomorrow in the US (already released in other countries). Supposedly it still has a "coil whine" that is caused by the graphics hardware/firmware. Though it has a completely new WiFi/Bluetooth card that is the same in both the DE and windoe versions of the laptop. I'm hoping it has a super key instead of the Windows key.

Seth Kontny the MacBook pros in the us? did not occur?

Xasasfdasfd "Coil whine" was never an issue for me. Could be my ears are just too old. But I can't hear any such thing with the first version.
