I am currently looking for a business grade laptop and having problem on choosing either the new Dell Vostro 14 5000 (5459) / Dell Latitude 14 3000 (3450) ~
Here are the requirements:
1) Good for programming and documentation (I am a final year CS student) 2) Ultraportable 13 / 14 inches (I dont really need optical drive) 3) Some light video / photo editing (No need for gaming because I already have a gaming desktop) 4) Decent performance which run program fast without loading for too long 5) Budget 3K

Btw,i do have one dell inspiron 3000 , 11 inch, BSOD after dell team guy come replace mainboard, end up said not suitable for windows 10 , infact, its preloaded with window 10 default spec.  , so as verdict, every brand also has lemon one
