Understood. I have used several such Dells and have had zero problems with any of them. In my professional capacity, that number has literally been in the 100s (if not 1000s) and we have had nothing but good results.

Like all things in IT, there are bad apples and issues.

An alternative would be the HP line of mobile workstations. Panasonic Toughbooks might also be something to consider.
