I use a well specced out Dell E6440 at work (i7-4610, 16GB ram, 512GB SSD, 1080p IPS screen) and it does have a classic non chiclet keyboard. Besides the weight and size of it due to the integrated DVD drive it found it to be an amazing machine with a great keyboad.

Personally I still use a ThinkPad X220 and I would not consider the Dell's keyboard significantly worse (I prefer the key placement of the page up/down keys etc of the X220 though).

I never understood why people didn't like chiclet keyboards until I recently bought a T420. Now, I don't want to go back ;-)

Exactly this is why I still keep my T420s. Also, the new lenovos tend to have absolutely terrible touchpads that move (tilt instead of having proper buttons) etc.
