To recap
The Dell is aimed at the heart, not the head. No right-thinking person would consider that two USB ports is enough for a modern laptop, but it somehow works anyway. For an ultra-portable laptop, it makes sense to ignore everything but the size, shape and weight, and that’s what Dell has done. It might be a bit limited as a computer, but it fires up our passion like no other Ultrabook.
