Linked: “Dell’s new XPS 13 has a stunning edge-to-edge display”

via The Verge:

Dell is claiming the new XPS 13 is the “smallest 13-inch laptop on the planet,” thanks primarily to the 13.3-inch borderless display that’s squeezed into an 11-inch size laptop. That doesn’t affect the keyboard though, you’re still getting a full size backlit chiclet keyboard. Alongside that, Dell has vastly improved the trackpad. I usually hate most Windows laptop trackpads, but I was very surprised with the new XPS 13. It’s using a glass button and a precision trackpad, which is something Microsoft has been encouraging OEMs to implement

Every single aspect of this notebook is perfect except that one underlying problem that it runs Windows. There was a time (2009-2010) that I ran Windows on my MacBook and iMac and got along just fine.I could see myself running Windows again simply to use this notebook. It’s small, sexy with an actual useable trackpad (the first for any non-Apple notebook) and it has a long battery life, beautiful ultra high def display. If I was in the market for a new notebook, I’d buy one of these without hesitation.
