I've bought thousand(s) of them in the past and even though I don't buy in volume like I used to I'm glad they're still sensible options. Most people don't care about how thick or light their laptop is as long as it's not ridiculously thick or heavy. What staff ask about these days when they want advice for a personal purchase is "how many years will it last for" and "how much space does it have" and "how noisy will it be.yeah! I was so close to buying a lenovo ideapad or thinkbook I think but so many horror stories w those and too many soldered on components and it's a hell to get into the system to do anything...
chose this because of the upgradability and better specs!! glad I did!
Nobody has ever asked me about AI or how thin they want it to be. They either just want the most drop-proof laptop, the most spill-proof laptop, or the laptop with the longest battery life. To keep it on topic, the ultraportable laptop like this XPS is an endangered species because the Surface Pro or Macbook Air are better travel compromises that any other laptops, and even those are at risk of being killed off by iPads which now have full official app support for just about everything most people want an ultraportable laptop for. If someone wants a laptop these days instead of an iPad, then they're probably not in the market for anything ridiculously thin, small, and light with hugely compromised keyboard, audio, screen, and performance.
