Aw did your mum buy you a Dell for doing well at school? ๐
Wow, why do you feel the need to be rude about it.
Do you get laid by being an asshole on the internet?
Dells are reliable and high quality machines, sure they're no Thinkpads but some of them are business quality and they're all better then HP or Asus
Latitudes and then XPS are the business-class, I think. I have a couple XPS Studios that have long outlived their usefulness. Integrated video, that's why they survived the bad BGA era. ;)
I'm not a fan of Dell either, but it beats many other brands.
This only counts for their business machines, though.
*only if it's a business machine as far as I know. A friend who's working for a company selling those B2B keeps telling me how often they get XPS returned, apparently modern variants just keep failing. Latitudes on the other hand seem almost indestructible.
I fixed my comment, thanks for clarifying.
Though I feel like that counts for most manufacturers. Only business laptops are good.
