I have an older XPS Studio and that thing was a graphics powerhouse but it started to fall apart fast. The entire top / screen was replaced under warranty due to dead pixels, then the replacement died for good and we have to use an external monitor if we ever need to boot it up. And when we do it runs like garbage. Not sure why that one sucked so bad, but this current latitude has been solid.
It's been a work horse for me, but the battery life is less than ideal. (to be fair, I don't let it manage itself and leave it cranked to 11 all the time)
Jake, I'll dig around and see if i can find the slides from our last Dell hardware roadmap meeting, they had a couple of cool things in the works.
edit - never mind, Dell never sent us that deck, some NDA whateverwhatever. I think it was an XPS 15 that they had as a demo, it was really slick, but spendy.
