I have a Precision 5520, it's pretty flawless aside from the TB16 dock having an issue with offloading CRC checksums... but you can work around it pretty easily: `sudo ethtool --offload eth0 rx off`

I mean, the hardware/batterylife/support/build is great, although it does soak up grease from my fingers super easily.
