Dell kills the XPS brand
(www.theverge.com)
But which of these new models will have AI?!
Intensely dumb.
Not sure which is the dumbest, Jaguar letting go of its signature mark or HBO renaming themselves to just Max but would be funny if Apple abandoned the Max naming for Ultra.

I-- wow. I read this article and I have no idea what they're thinking. How does this simplify anything?!
Resurrecting their commercials from the 90’s now, it would go like this:
Duuuude, you’re gettin’ a Dell.
Oh….. dang.
Why the fuck did it even take them that long? Alienware acquisition was in 2006.
Ugh.
so honestly, who would you use now? I'd never buy HP, Acer, Lenovo. total crap machines. what other brands of laptop are any good going into 2025/2026? The XPS was always my go-to but now what options are remaining?
As I work with HP and HPE at work:
Just don't buy anything below ProBook and EliteBook. They are trash.
In fact, don't buy anything you see at an electronic retailer without looking and inspecting the product very intensely.
And buy the business-line. They are usually better than consumer product lines.
At this point I build my desktops and I'll buy Framework laptops.
I love my framework, though it's not as small and battery efficient as my previous xps 13
I honestly still like Thinkpad. Using a T14s currently.
