I don't like it. I really don't understand why they don't offer a 16 GB RAM version of the XPS.


My understanding is that the motherboard does not permit it. From what I have read they are marking the initial XPS13 as "EARLY 2015" units -- with Windows 10 and Skylake around the corner you may see another major refresh later this year.

Typing to you on a XPS13 "Early 2015".


Well that's better than nothing, but I'll note that my 2012 laptop is happy with 32GB.


The smaller dev edition is based on an ultra-book design, which unfortunately leads to such limitations, while a workstation design like the Precision will not.
