Who else wants to get this beauty? (New Dell XPS 13 2015)
Yes it has one or two minuses for me. But..
Don't comment "lel dell is 2 xpanisve I can build epic rig for same price with cheetos xddd" or "gay men laptop xdd"

looks like poor man's Macbook... in darker shade.
>>
>>46739905
macbooks are fugly though
>>
>>46739986
Yeah it does. Big smooth trackpad, chicklet keyboard, glossy screen with small black bezel. It's darker, but that was accounted for by "in darker shade".

What could make this laptop looks *more* like a Macbook Pro? My bet is that list is fairly short.

So they could use silver instead of black coating? So you agree that this looks like a darker MBP, or what?

No turn off auto brightness. It could have been so good.

>>46740188
I'm not the guy who initially made the comment that it looks like a dark MBP, but that doesn't mean you can't have an opinion. My statement was that there's very little one could change about the XPS 13 to look MORE like a black version of an mbp. There are things, but the list is short.

You jumped into the conversation; jumping out on the pretext that you had no role in it is stupid.

DYEL, faggot?
>>
>>46740243
for as small profile as it is, it feels like it's filled with lead or something

heavier + thicker than my old MBA
>>
>>46740198
Its like .3 lbs heavier than a MBA
Mine doesn't get hot. I've tried. I had chrome with like 3 twitch streams, while watching LotR RotK, while sitting on the bed with the vents covered. Shit got barely hot enough to feel.
>>
>>46740261
ok well that shit doesn't use hardly any CPU you retard

when i was running windows update the first time, the thing got alarmingly hot

>>
>>46740243
Not him, but anything with weight has a cumulative toll when carried around all day long. Lactic acid and whatnot. Most adults could pick up and carry a desktop tower around for a few minutes, and if required could probably carry it on their back all day. It'd be difficult over time though, and doing it just to prove that we're in shape is childishly stupid.

>assuming any linux variant has any sort of proper UI scaling without going full-on mouthbreather lock-yourslef-in-the-basement configuration & compile your own kernel mode
>>
>>46740309
Even Windows has relatively poor scaling compared to OS X. It sucks, but Apple had so little legacy software baggage as a result of consistently pushing developers either off or onboard with each OS update that they could implement a high density display and get everything caught up in about a year or two. These days I rarely find anything that doesn't support a retina display (with the exception of weird emulators and stuff like that).

i am hoping windows 10 clears things up, it will be a long and painful wait

i have not had many issues with scaling in windows 8, the only thing that didn't work right was battle.net

Don't they have a Ubuntu version of this coming soon?

either you are blind or you are downright retarded.

I'm retarded? Coming from someone who jumped into a conversation and scrambled to get out of immediately afterward? Who'll probably pretend to be yet another passer-by who has no interest in this conversation except to be another retard who feels like completing captchas?

yes you are.

> Coming from someone who jumped into a conversation and scrambled to get out of immediately afterward?
you claimed the xps looks liek a macbook with no valid arguments, moron. hurrr it has a glossy screen with a keyboard n touchpad! durrr!
>>
>>46741282
>no valid arguments
what arguments are there? You look at it. It's subjective. If you're a frothing zealot I guess you insist that every minute detail casts it worlds away from a MBP, but that's the risk of subjectivity I guess.
>>
>>46740100
Same fucking thread, different fucking Dell. Go shill someplace else.
>>
>>46741297
>It's subjective.

no it's not you moron. it's like comparing a fat black guy to a skinny white dude. difference between the two laptops is clearly day and night.

>wanting a numberpad on a 13" laptop the size of an 11" laptop

And what? Gimp the rest of the keyboard too?
