| horsewhip | Anyone got a Kabylake XPS 13"? | 12:13 |
|---|---|---|
| BluesKaj | Hey folks | 12:26 |
| ducasse | hi BluesKaj | 12:29 |
| BluesKaj | hi ducasse | 12:30 |
| ducasse | all good? | 12:30 |
| BluesKaj | yup, and you ? | 12:30 |
| ducasse | good, quiet day. really cold out, so staying inside. | 12:30 |
| BluesKaj | right | 12:33 |
| ducasse | BluesKaj: how's your weather? | 12:35 |
| BluesKaj | -11 and clear atm, there? | 12:36 |
| BluesKaj | sun's is rising | 12:36 |
| ducasse | a little colder, grey and foggy. | 12:37 |
| daftykins | horsewhip: i have clients with it | 13:44 |
| daftykins | own the skylake model myself | 13:44 |
| BluesKaj | hey daftykins .....? | 13:47 |
| daftykins | \o skylake (6th gen) and kaby lake (7th gen) intel core CPUs in Dell XPS 13 laptops this is :> | 13:48 |
| daftykins | 9350 and 9360 models respectively | 13:48 |
| horsewhip | daftykins: How do you find it? I hear reports of the scaling going awry when connected to external displays. | 14:08 |
| daftykins | ah well i tell people not to get the QHD models, 1080p is best for battery life | 14:09 |
| horsewhip | Work are getting me a QHD one. | 14:11 |
| daftykins | mistake :) scaling fun will result | 14:12 |
| daftykins | what's your DE of choice? | 14:12 |
| horsewhip | IntelliJ / Vim / Sublime | 14:14 |
| daftykins | desktop environment was what i was aiming for :) Unity/KDE/etc | 14:15 |
| daftykins | i've always heard Unity is good for displays where scaling will be needed | 14:15 |
| horsewhip | hahah, opps – I'll stick with whatever it ships with. | 14:15 |
| horsewhip | Unity, I beleive. | 14:16 |
| daftykins | oh right so it'll be the factory install on the developer edition? | 14:16 |
| horsewhip | Yup | 14:16 |
| daftykins | i buy from Dell UK, so the Outlet is amazing for me - dell.co.uk/outlet - i got my XPS13 for £580 delivered when they were £999 new still on the site | 14:17 |
| horsewhip | I'm UK based too – thanks for the heads up – I'll take a look. | 14:17 |
| horsewhip | Well, I'll take a look when I want to replace my personal laptop. | 14:18 |
| daftykins | :> | 14:18 |
| daftykins | just got a couple of XPS desktops for clients too for £600 delivered, i7 6700/16GB RAM/GTX 960 graphics/256GB M.2 SSD/2TB HDD/etc | 14:19 |
| daftykins | they really are great at times :> | 14:19 |
| horsewhip | Although they've got the XPS 13 - 9360 in stock at the outlet store, so might be sooner rather than later! | 14:22 |
| daftykins | yeah it comes and goes :> once you go into one you get whether it's a "certified refurbished" or a "scratch and dent" which have always had really minor damage for me | 14:23 |
| horsewhip | hmmmm, with an extra 10% off. | 14:29 |
| horsewhip | Shame it ships with windows though. | 14:56 |
| horsewhip | (I'm pretty lazy when it comes to faffing with computers) | 14:56 |
| daftykins | you could image up the one you're getting from work and just clone it over, then change the hostname and any keys | 14:58 |
| horsewhip | Surely all the Dell wotnot they ship installed on their Ubuntu laptops exists in a PPA somewhere... | 15:01 |
| daftykins | yeah i think it's passworded though or something awkward | 15:04 |
| daftykins | or the key doesn't import - this was ages ago though | 15:04 |
