A:Answeryes, we gave my sister this laptop for her high school graduation this past may. She loves it, its got plenty of space, fast processing and its lightweight.
A:AnswerYes it works with what is known as a capacitive stylus/pen, which a type that is universal with most touch screen devices. There are plenty of options, recommend the Meko 2in1 or the Adonit Jot Pro. Though this model is not compatible with any official Dell pen.

A:AnswerWe bought an Adonit Ink fine point stylus with this computer and it will not work. I am in this section trying to find a recommendation for a stylus that will work.
A:Answeraudio jack yes, Microsoft programs built in but you can opt out,Boots up in 5 seconds, it is built like a Tank, Yes, it has system fails I think
A:AnswerThis model with 8GB RAM (expandable) and 7gen core13 is plenty enough to run C# general programming. Only thing this MAY struggle with is heavy virtualization/video game type programming when running multiple apps. But remember you can expand the RAM on this device relatively easily. JavaScript and VB need very minimal requirements, so will be a breeze on this machine. I could recommend this device for a compusci/programming student.
A:AnswerYou don't have to, in fact, this laptop have Wireless-AC connectivity that even increases nearly 3x the speed, more capacity and wider coverage for connectivity
