Yeah, I absolutely need a good keyboard.

Thinkpads X1s look really nice. Why is it better than XPS?

Main advantage is the full sized keyboard.

If you do a lot of coding, it's just a better ride than "compressed" keyboards.

13" is a nice form factor, but I find the 14" X1 just has enough space to give a nicer typing experience.

Just my opinion, you should see if you can try one out, and see what you think.
