How do these ones hold up over time? I haven't had a Dell PC of any kind, laptop or desktop, last longer than two years (and thanks to switching jobs a few times and being the family PC tech support, I've seen quite a few Dells). I had given up on the brand completely, but this is a very tempting piece of hardware.

I hate how hard it is to find the specs I want in a laptop computer. Some sites will let you filter by specs, but sometimes I'd be willing to compromise on some specs if other specs hit certain thresholds. And then, it seems like some products get selected by the filter that should be, and others get filtered out that do match the specs, so I'm just back to reading pretty much every product page until I find what I want.
