Last time I worked with the Vostro line they claimed they were for Corp type of work but lack of a docking station for them made them more for road warriors. That said I would reconsider the Latitude line and look at getting something that you could run with XP mode. I have not worked enough with Windows 8 yet to say anything about working with a VM on that platform. I have run several packages that claimed to only run in XP and would not install in 7 but ran just fine from XP mode.
