Thanks! Great to see someone who has almost both of my two competitors:

I agree with the XPS trackpad issue. There is no noticeable difference between the two otherwise? I think that the XPS is about one pound lighter. And also the screen resolution is HD as opposed to QHD for the XPS. I am told that the XPS has more bezel space.

The Latitude 7490 with specs that I quoted is priced at $1410 but that may be somewhat less because of bulk purchasing. This is the standard issue for our work. If we want  XPS 13 with similar specs, it costs around $2000 with 4-year warranty (which is a requirement for a purchase to be approved). Are you sure that your specs are similar to what I am pricing -- 512 GB SSD, 16GB RAM? $850 seems a bargain, it looks!

Thanks again!
