Yeah, not only it is ridiculous to have a laptop targeting devs to be Home edition, the oldie XPS Linux variants are long gone, yet Dell gladly sells server racks with Linux.
Why would Dell selling server racks with Linux be the reason they should also sell laptops with Linux? Apple doesn't sell Macs with iOS despite selling iPhones with iOS. I get that Dell used to sell laptops with Linux, and that they should in general, I just don't see how selling server racks with Linux is in any way related.
For one, folks have to reverse engineer the same hardware, kind of.
Where is it saying ‘devs’? I mean the title is “Creator Edition” (as in ‘content creator’ as in doomscroll marketing bs maker)
Missing reading abilities?
I guess we are on an age that only the title gets read.
> Engineered for creators, developers, and gamers
So creators first? (But yes, sorry i have been awake for 48 hours)
Alphabetical order, get some rest.
Wow. I would never imagine any promotional text would consider that order tbh. But it seems you are at least not wrong. Nice observation :D
I don’t use windows so what is the difference between home and pro versions of windows? My understanding is the pro version enables device management features needed by a corporate network. Is there a performance difference that would affect an individual developer?
Yes, plenty of developer tooling is only available on Add/Remove OS components for Professionals, besides several OS configurations regarding scheduling, containers management, OS limits,....
Not exactly performance, but features. For example, you can’t use Remote Desktop to connect to a machine running Windows Home.
Also, there are industry specific apps that can require Pro.
Swing and a miss from Dell, yet again. Did someone just go "It's not got more than 128GB RAM right? OK Home is fine then" ??
