If you are not sure on what type of dilemma I have then dont make assumptions as everyone is different. Furthermore, I'm not asking for anyone's opinion on which laptop to choose. The question I'm asking is when will the upgrades/refresh of XPS line coming. The dilemma part is a statement not a question. There are many things to consider (price, specs, reliability, smoothness, convenience etc) and both are expensive gadgets to me. So what's wrong if I have a dilemma. I'm not someone who would just spend my hard earned money based without any comparison/research. So I'm currently waiting/want to know when the latest upgrade from dell to see which is much better choice to be made since MBP already done their upgrades.
keep on asking. coz no one is ever sure on that. why want to choose a mbp over xps? both have different usage i presume and what the dilemma for? if you dont want people to answer your dilemma question, then dont ever mention that. i have to asnwer coz it looks like a question BEGGING for answer.
if it were me, if I use a lot of windows based program, for sure i want a windows type of laptop. if I were to use apple based program, i would use apple hardware. then again, I dunno that coz you dont even state that you dont want answer to your own question. *sigh* this type of people also got..... ask question but dont want answer.
about your main question, there exist another forum as well, and it is also quite heavily answered and also, the dell rep is also confused. here is the link. this is just some guide i can provide for your dilemma.
http://forum.notebookreview.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1049 we are also hate to answer a question that dont want an answer... so pls do hint us in the future if you want to ask a question that dont need an answer.
