    So im looking to buy a laptop for general usage and some media stuff. My budget is around $750. Ive narrowed it down to either getting a Dell XPS 15 ( I can get one refurbished for around 750 on the dell website) or buying a Dell Inspiron 15R and upgrading it with a new graphics card and stuff. The 15R option would be around $50 cheaper but I don't know if the XPS is a better option cause its higher quality all around.

    everyone seems to recommend latitudes over either of those models.
