Dell 14S review: Nearly 36 hours of battery life comes with compromises
When you purchase through links in our articles, we may earn a small commission. The Dell 14S isn't a very exciting laptop, and it leaves a lot of performance on the table by opting for Intel Graphics in most configurations, but it's a well-built machine with a quality display and exceptional battery life. The Dell 14S is a new, understated productivity laptop from the manufacturer. It skips the ostentation of the XPS line and has a bit more in common with older Inspiron models, but it's still built with premium materials and a clean aesthetic. It also aims for a more modest price point while still providing the hardware specs necessary for general office use, though the current market doesn't quite allow the price to get very low.

Thames Water lenders offer 'golden share' to head off nationalisation
Thames Water lenders offer'golden share' to head off nationalisation Image caption, Thames Water's lenders want to let local authorities have more involvement Thames Water's main lenders are offering the government a golden share and more control for local authorities in a bid to stop the troubled supplier from being nationalised. The government recently rejected a previous rescue proposal, and the BBC understands the lenders are preparing a legal challenge in case the new Andy Burnham-led government takes the firm into public hands. In his first speech as prime minister on Monday, Burnham said he wanted to see greater public control of life's essentials. The new proposal offers local authorities greater involvement in the firm, similar to the relationship between United Utilities and Greater Manchester agreed when Burnham was the city's mayor. The London & Valley Water (L&VW) consortium of lenders had already proposed a £10bn deal to prevent Thames Water from entering administration.

As I mentioned recently, I'm a fan of cable management behind a desk . But it was suggested to me the other day that I don't go far enough.
