Can't persuade them to get the new XPS?

Afraid not, they used to give out Dell, but it was never the xps... so I am afraid it would have to be one of the 3 options listed on my post...
If it was my old job, I could make a case to get an Alienware, but not in my new job, besides, while the Alienware are good laptops, they are so big and well, big.

Hi, thinking of swapping my work Mac to a PC, if I could have my way (our IT buyer is a dick), I could choose from one of these 3, what do you think?
Surface Book 2 13.5", i5 8350U / 1.7GHz, 8GB, 256GB SSD
Surafce Pro 6 12.3", i5 8350U / 1.7GHz, 8GB, 256GB SSD
They won't let you upgrade to 16Gb despite the fact that my work could benefit 16GB, because you could also choose from:
Toshiba Portege X30-E-1J7, 13.3", i7-8550U, 16GB, 512GB
Honesy truth is, I quite fancy a Surface but they specs are a bit shit, I have seen a similar model Toshiba some colleagues have, it is quite nice, also a touch screen.
The Mac I current have is 2017 13" 15 16GB 256GB.
These days I do a combination of admin and some design work...
