    The only thing I have is this http://www.tomsitpro.com/articles/dell-skylake-precision-workstations,1-2925.html

    There is a table in the article which lists configuration options for various models.

    I'd be happy with that. I'm pretty sure Dell will label them as Windows users.

    Consolidated my questions:
    - Will there be a refresh of the Precision 15 7000 with Infinity Edge display?
    - Can Precision 15 5000 be configured (now, in the future) with a keyboard with numpad/10key ?

    The day has come, 7710 available to order on Irish Dell website. About to run through the configurator.

    EDIT: nothing unusual in the above, well, still no Windows 10-by-default option. Funny that you can get Windows 7 recovery DVD but no option to buy an actual external drive ;-) Of course, that can be bought in the nearest store for nothing.

    Anyways, I had a quick chat with Dell with a few questions:

    Interesting answer on question 3, I wonder is that actually true? Time to check with my Dell account manager...

    I assume this doesn't mean what it sounds like -- that the USB 3.1/Thunderbolt port will be available from day 1?

    Sorry for being a bit of a broken record about this, but can we get some info on when the Linux option will be available?

    I could really use a new laptop. I am looking at the System76 Oryx pro as well, which has similar specifications for my needs. I'd really like to make an informed purchase decision, but it's been weeks since the 7510 came out and there is still no Linux option. I'm not going to wait an indefinite amount of time. Maybe another week or so, but I think that's more than enough time for a product that was announced Oct 1.

    Only thing I can tell you is that Linux support is coming soon.
