My personal laptop is the Dell XPS 13 (the 7373 model) so you'll catch me with it folded sometimes reading over documents, specs or watching video.
It's on a decent core (Intel i5-3570K) and has about 8 GB of RAM.
Coding & Development
For text editing, I use Neovim.
I've been using Vim for well over 6 years now and I don't see me stopping.
Other
It runs Kubuntu with beta updates because I like testing software on my production machine (don't do this, lol).
It runs both Windows 10 Insider and Kubuntu (on stable).
I keep a rented server (VPS) over with DigitalOcean but I'm planning to make my home computer into something of a server that isn't headless.
