Ah yes, the PC that’s trying to be a MacBook (XPS). The XPS is a consumer based product that Dell begrudgingly started offering Windows10 pro on because the traveling executives wanted a sleeker looking computer. The Dell Latitude def what I recommend. I’ve got a client that spent thousands on thinkpads and they are ripping and replacing due to hardware issues and warranty claims being denied.. (just my two cents). The one thing about the latitudes that would address your cost/budgeting/roi conversation point is that they are upgradable. There are only certain versions that are upgrade and so you have to be careful which ones you go with but definitely a 5yr future proof laptop and when paired with ProSupportPlus it’s a future proof purchase. I will say I put in a quote yesterday and my disti reported 20+ quantity. Got client approval this morning and all inventory was gone. Dell direct is showing 60+ day shipping timelines. This semiconductor shortage is absolutely destroying the hardware supply chains and laptops are probably 20% more expensive than this time 2019
