Hmm, i dont see apple designs looking like a Gucci handbag.....
Refer to my previous post about the industrial minimalistic looks of apple that I like. First and formost tho, im going to be entering the mac world for OSX.
And what about the black version? No engravings on that.
Personally I think that the black version looks a lot like the Latitude E6x00 series, which I also really like the design on.
Eh, maybe it's the reason I own Thinkpads...
I looked for a few minutes, but couldn't find any product shots of the bottom, would you mind posting a link?
You'll have to excuse me if it might take till tomorrow, its 130 am here and i have to get up. I do vaguely remember seeing shots with the black having the same base as the white version, but it my just be my mind jumbling things up. Im sorry if I'm wrong on that one.
You are right tho, the black looks WAYYYYYYYY better than the handbag version.
The black one looks pretty decent IMO, but the back of the bottom part that sticks out an inch when open ruins it.
I think even with more ports and functionality, The Macbook Air is still a lot nicer and better designed.
The Adamo is poorly designed compared to Apple-esque products, and for a dell of that speed, I expected it to be quite a bit cheaper than it was.

At least its trackpad is in the middle where it belongs and not in the far left corner of the notebook. I can't stand non-centered trackpads from both a usability and looks perspective.
I don't think it looks bad at all. I have absolutely no interest in wasting my money on either a MacBook Air or the Adamo though.
Seriously. A bunch of image conscious people who are easily manipulated by aesthetics and clever marketing are complaining about this computer? I like my MacBook and all, but some of you people are way too devoted to a corporation that couldn't even begin to care this much about any of you.

Word.
And, it's a Dell. Me had probs with Dell(s). I dunno about their stuff in the last three years, but I'm burned on their stuff and definitely wouldn't consider a first-model-to-market.
While it is an interesting design concept, I'm not that crazy about it. Especially since I'd be constantly afraid of catching that thick part near the hinge on something. I also feel that somehow, with this concept, they could have had more screen real estate but chose to do something else.
Also, I'll never buy a computer with such a crazy resolution, even if it is that of a 720p hdtv.
