Well, then you are very,
VERY lucky. I have yet to receive 13/15 XPS that doesn't suffer from coil whine
I didn't say Thinkpads have better screen. But what I will say is: Thinkpads have less issues with screen then Dell.
And as far as dell in my hands go, well, I have had more then a 50 of them in my hands in the last 2-3 years alone. Most of our company was either on Dell or Apple
Dell has been replaced now. And no one is complaining
Very much true. But then again, when your SSD fails while you still have warranty, what do you do then? Replace it yourself and lose $$$? Or ask for Dell support? And then again, SSD on Dell is a joke compared to new MBP's. Not because of hardware, but because of (lousy) drivers. Just like 9550 series had issues with GPU drivers and screen freezes. Or you didn't experience those as well, even though every other dell xps owner has? And that problem lasted for almost 2 months.
Are you sure you are using a Dell XPS?
P.S.
As far as just replacing SSD goes, you are right there. Easy on Dell, impossible on MBP. Same goes with RAM. But then again, if something fails, we have backup laptops/computers. And we have backups of our entire OS or just work. So just a simple swap of computers goes a long way while the laptop that is broken is getting a repair.
I thought every company has at least a few backups
