Surely there’s a dongle for Ethernet. There is for the Macs that don’t come with Ethernet. I have one.d
Of course, I think I might have used it ONCE. Increasingly, Ethernet ports are also an edge case. Also, the XPS13 & XPS 14 are completely different machines. The 14 uses old tech; the 13 used newer tech. The 13 will be so much faster than the 14 it won’t be funny (thanks to the SSD in the 13). Scott -- R.
