Only the XPS 13 from te XPS range is "Linux compatible". The rest are a crapshoot.

I had a little look at the Precision 7760. With Ubuntu there's only 1 version available in the UK and it's a beast with 64GB RAM and 4TB SSD. It cost £6,091.39[1].

Looking at Apple for a rough equivalent[2] I spec'd a 16" up with 64GB and 4TB and it's £4,599.00

I'm an XPS 13 Dev Ed owner myself. It's OK for the most part, I don't have many problems with it.

I'm not in the market for a 16"/17" laptop right now but when it's time to replace this it's going to be hard to look past what Apple are offering.

Change the RAM and SSD to the minimum and buy upgrades elsewhere.
