    XPS graphics card is almost doubly as powerful so expect less waiting for rendering CAD.
     
    It looks like the XPS is also better vented (marginally) so you can always use a cooling pad to force more air through for cooling purposes.

    Overnight security where you only have to take a walk once an hour and otherwise you're left alone.
     
    Bring your books and get paid to study!

    There's two problems that people are conflating:
    - Bulk bandwidth to Alaska
    - Actual last mile transport.
     
    There's already existing lines from Seattle to Anchorage undersea, while the new cable along the Alcan would be very good for redundancy and earthquake proofing internet access, unless if the existing lines are clogged (or really expensive) it doesn't change the last mile problem

    Well in linux you can use an international layout with AltGR and a compose key (AG+shift) or a US international layout where there are more diacritic keys to type accented characters.
     
    You're technically not supposed to type arbitrary unicode symbols so if you want to you have to use an extension.

    Never in the US, if your router and modem can handle it you will get traffic on all devices. All they should see is one router.
     
    However, if you're plugging multiple things into the WAN there may be a problem there

    As long as you don't need to type backslash too often.
     
    I have to switch back and forth because my laptop is ANSI and my desktop keyboard is ISO and I've figured that I can safely hit the lower part of the ISO enter and the right side of the ANSI enter to have a consistent place to hit that button.
     
    Backslash on the other hand...
