XPS 12 Haswell

So my laptop arrived yesterday. First thing I had to so is reinstall my wifi driver, kept losing connection after downloading 50mb, I think that has now been fixed.

So on steam I normally d/l at 8.8MB/s on my home hub 3, infinity 2, 76mb d/l and 16m/b up. I managed to get over 5mb.over wifi.

As for gaming on 720p with everything off, hitman got 20fps average and sleeping dogs 24fps. Just as well I didn't buy the laptop with gaming in mind, you can never beat a pc or xbox for that. The big test will come later when I try footie manager later on

Only niggles is that the trackpad is sensitive, I will need to adjust to it and mess with the settings. I have also ordered 2 touch pens from amazon for £2.89 delivered, it is just to hard to use my fingers and missing the target and launching the wrong thing and I have small hands.

I received my stylus/pen today from amazon and I am now using my xps 12 as a tablet, makes a huge difference. Just a shame the xps feels twice as heavy, I am doubting that it weighs 1.5kgs. Best £2 I have ever spent
