thanks Raymond

For spec with 91Whr, I personally think the sacrifice in storage is worth it for longer battery runtime.
61Whr for a quad core is not nice The 58 Whr battery for i7 ULT in Inspiron 15 7000 will end up giving longer battery runtime.

Maybe an alternative is to swap out the 32GB mSATA SSD with a 256GB mSATA SSD, and turn that to the primary OS and application storage (but that depends on how accessible is the mSATA port )

But the XPS is really target at people who may really need to produce multimedia content with a powerful machine The i5 H and i7 HQ are work horses compared to the i7 ULT in Inspiron.

Hornet nest

if you mean change the laptop display, no, Dell Malaysia don't have that option.
You can connect to external display that support any resolution

Any GPU can "handle" FHD display. But at what fps especially for newer game? That Geforce 9500M will not be playable in FHD for recent games

it come with the CPU. As long as Apple use that CPU, it has Iris Pro (HD 5200).

then good luck to them in getting sales

Price drop

Latitude 10, Atom Z2760 + Intel GMA + 64GB SSD + (1366x768; touch)@RM1380, 2GB, W8

Understand this is happening to all tablet spec with Atom Z2760 in the market, in preparation of onslaught of Atom Z3xxx (Bay Trail).

Samsung ATIV Smart (not Pro) with stylus is also going at approx. the same price.

Looking at the price of Asus T100, I think Atom Bay Trail + W8.1 tablet are going to be <RM1.5k across the board (remind me of Netbook, but this round with better spec, more mobility, better battery run time, and a full OS + Office (apparently for all Bay Trail tablet with W8.1, MS is throwing in an Office Home/Student ) (make me wonder why are we bother with W8.1RT ).

Dell just show us brochure (no price) on the new Precision M3800 (15")
I think this is (not XPS15) the competitor to rMBP 15" for the professional users.

want spec like MBP 15", but don't want to pay the price
i7 quad core in 13/14" ultrabook profile? Disaster waiting to happen
And I don't think "a lot of people would be queuing up to get one "
Normal usage don't need quad core.
Gamers don't want it since Intel 5200 is weak ass comparatively speaking.
Pro graphic workers who know what is good for them will opt for Quadro / FirePro card.

that illegear (Clevo) is 13" but definitely not slim like an ultrabook

If you are kind / cruel, scan that flyer and facebook / email to Dell Malaysia. They will probably skin the PIC
