Dang, just noticed that the XPS doesn't have a numeric keypad.
On a laptop? yeah, no thanks.
Yeah. I use it quite a bit.
yeah, I use the numeric keypad alot, but I find it really annoying when working on several remote machines, it's on, it's off, it's on it's off. Don't have to worry about that when you don't have one.
I run into this also but it is a small price to pay.

Me too, I live on the numeric pad.
I user it lightly. not enough to want a larger keyboard on my laptop, thus pushing me to a screen size bigger than 13"
If I really need it, I need to be docked and on a full keyboard.
My eyesight isn't the greatest so I stick to 15" screens myself. I tried the 13's for a while and just couldn't handle it. Now, if I could doc everywhere, that would be awesome.

Deciding on do I use my cheap ass rework station for some console repairs, see if I can get a small bit for it. Or do I send some ££ on a micro iron that's better for SMD stuff?
Seen some good reviews on some cheapish banggood iron and hot air separate

I've got a decent iron with interchangeable tips, and a hot air gun. Been able to repair a good number of Playstations with that basic kit.

@scottalanmiller which is why we have a spare!

No new house for us. We backed out of the contract as the electrical work was more $$ than what the seller wanted to spend (they tried to negotiate us paying for part which we said no they need to fix it on their dime). Sad but we're ok with it.

I'm trying to put together a pitch for our executives/City Council to persuade them to increase our spending on Cybersecurity by 50%. If any of you all have good resources to point me to it would be welcome.
