1999USD?!? Wasn't supposed to kill the Maxbook Air in every way INCLUDING price?? Macbook Air is $1999CDN right now.

the air is less than that right now i believe

[Presto]

The base model Air is cheaper... It starts at 1799 USD, but it doesn't have a SSD, while the base Adamo for 1999 USD does.

[J____]

that looks sweet

It looks sweet, but i totally didn't expect the price be that high. Its so sexy omfg.

lol I watched the video. It's a machined unibody like the new macbooks. But it looks like there's a lot more components. It's amazing how the power they can pack on such small motherboards nowadays.

what a ripoff..
top of the line is like 3500... 4k after tax. who the hell is gonna pay that for a small 13" laptop in a recession? folks at dell are out to lunch. nobody bought the macbook air and nobody will buy dell's adamo

lol. a 2000 dell.

way to price themselves out of the market.

im guessing this is just a flagship intended to raise brand image and isnt going to be actually mass sold like air.

Well alot of ppl bought the macbook air cause it was unique.. this is just Dell's overpriced attempt at stealing some of apple's thunder. Too bad it looks like it's gonna fizzle. As nice as it looks.

its almost as thick as my sony.... but unibody is nice... too bad i wont need another notebook for the next 3 yrs

This makes the MB Air look reasonably priced.

This makes the MB Air look reasonably priced.
Yeah the total opposite of what they were trying to do.

Pretty as it may be this doesn't compete with the Air in performance, price or weight. And the Air itself is not competitive on a spec-to-spec basis.

I'm a windows user and I would sooner buy the Air and a full version of Windows than this abomination of uncompetitiveness.
