Why no one buys xps 13 model?

I am not even sure why dell continues to sell xps 13 model when people have choice to buy xps 14 model which has 3rd generation latest processor with base clock speed of 2.6 GHz and definite 3 MB cache memory. The xps 13 doesn't even have 3 MB cache memory. Odd but true, the price of 13 model is Rs. 1K or so more than 14 model ! xps 13 comes in sandy bridge processors while 14 has an option of 2 processors, one of 3 MB cache while other of 4 MB cache, both from Core i5 UVL chip.

The wireless in xps 13 is from Intel centrino Advanced N 6230. Sirish here says that Intel's R&D budget is more than whole of AMD's annual research budget. Plus there is more to customize in xps 14 than 13 as you can have a Nvidia GPU or additional 4 GB RAM. Both have the same chassis made from aluminium and carbon fibre body which make it much lighter.

Both come around Rs. 80K here in India if you buy from a verified dell store. The in stock items in store can save you 4-5K tax money also.

Chiclet keypad from dell inspiron models

I just love the feel of these key's used in dell laptops, specifically inspiron models. They are so cosy and comfortable that you feel like resting your hands on them for a while. They are well rounded and perfectly spaced. Although i am used to compact keypads, the one's used earlier in lenovo models, when thinkpad used to be popular known brand of it.

Some new laptops have been launched in india by dell which have v. good specs, Intel's processors and graphics card too. Price is like around Rs. 40-45 k for a decent spec model. Inspiron's new models like 14R or 15R have latest 3rd generation ivy bridge core processors and good thing is that you can always modify your requirements in terms of peripherals from dell shop.

Alienware gaming ones have one of the best fancy keyboards ever, they got a pattern of backlit light, let's say some part of keyboard in an orderly fashion is red lit while other is blue lit, some other parts is green lit. Although they are quietly costly, above 1 lac or so. But they got great GPU's.
