Attention Dell Users: Your Opinions, Please

Hi,

Starting UF in Fall 2015, possibly doing biomed engineering. I’m considering the Dell Inspiron 15 7000 Series as a laptop workstation, that can be taken to classes, used to take notes, etc. Wondering if I get a stylus, I can take notes via the screen as well. I’d like the Dell XPS 13 but it’s too pretty of a penny.

So if anyone here has experience with a Dell laptop, especially the above mentioned, could you share your experience with its performance? Or if you can recommend a better laptop that’d be great. I’d really appreciate it, thanks so much.
