Dell XPS vs System 76 Gazelle
I'm looking at new laptops, and am currently waffling on whether to get a System 76 Gazelle Professional or Dell XPS.
I only use Linux at home. Obviously the System 76 comes with a linux OS while Dell XPS doesn't. However I've been using my Dell XPS for 4 years, went through my distro-hopping phase and then decided to stick with Slackware.
So I have no problem installing Linux, and I would replace Ubuntu on the System 76 anyway. For a comparable price, the specs are pretty similar between the two - which is kind of surprising, I figured System 76 would offer much better deals.
Dell is a product I've used for over a decade, it's a known quantity, while I've never used System 76 products.
Anyone have advice or experience with one? Maybe there are some considerations I'm not thinking of right now.
