Re: Dell Adamo XPS Ultra Thin Notebook Coming
That seems extremely thin. Looks interesting though.

Re: Dell Adamo XPS Ultra Thin Notebook Coming
I hope it has a CD drive. I hope it has more than one USB port. I hope it has a removable battery.
...
Actually, I'll just sum this up a little better. I hope it is better than the Macbook Air. That would make an awesome ultraportable.

Re: Dell Adamo XPS Ultra Thin Notebook Coming
Teaser for a 9.99mm thick notebook goes up on 9/9/09.
I wonder how long they were sitting on the announcement.

The better not be an atom and if they must be an atom better be a dual core atom N430 with good hd support.

Re: Dell Adamo XPS Ultra Thin Notebook Coming
Interesting, looks like they abandoned the square edges (and cooling holes).

Re: Dell Adamo XPS Ultra Thin Notebook Coming
In case anyone needs a benchmark, 9.99mm is a little less than the thickness of a pinky.

Re: Dell Adamo XPS Ultra Thin Notebook Coming
It's also, I believe, thinner than the iPhones. Highly likely that this will be using an Atom, since such a thin profile really constricts what freedom Dell has to implement some sort of cooling system.

Re: Dell Adamo XPS Ultra Thin Notebook Coming
My mouth is watering, if only because I'm really interested in how they engineered this kind of product.
