Side Tangent: I sencerely hope this trend does not catch on, because as someone who touch types (i.e., both palms on the laptop and fingers resting on home row), I strongly view the "seamless" trackpad as an anti-feature. They are far too easily to accidentally activate, leading to unpredictable things happening when trying to type anything on your computer. I have one of these XPS models from work, and despite it's other advantages, that one design choice holds it back so much. I have to talk about how horrible this design choice is every time I see it, because if product managers don't realize the mistake they're making by adding it to their laptops, then touch typists will be doomed.

It really is the best version of Windows if you don't game: the performance is great, no issues with legacy software, and the battery life (especially in standby!) is impressive.
