Despite its young age, Dell's XPS 14 has been apparently scraped in favour of something "thinner and lighter" that will be launched later this year.

In case you don't remember, the Dell XPS 14 was Core i5/Geforce 400M notebook that was certainly something worth buying considering its overall build quality, impressive specs and an aggressive price tag.
