Dell Adamo: Thinner Than Air?

[JMcEntegart]

When the MacBook Air launched it was the world’s thinnest laptop. It caught the eye of Apple fans (duh) and non-Apple fans alike. It was sexy and slim but overpriced.

wtf

Does anyone even attempt to edit these articles before they are posted?

It's Tom's guide so you shouldn't expect much, but they may as well start taking user submissions for articles if this is what their writers are putting out.

so.... what now? Did we switch laptops in the middle of the article?

and wtf is up with the 4th paragraph? If you already have confirmed that this is coming out and even have a release date why do you need to say something about what an exec getting stupified over a simple question. Seems like a response that might have been given out a year ago. Or is he just not aware of his own product line-up.

There is a slot type optical rom on the right side. It is in two pcitures.

This is retarded.

I can understand small to a degree, but thin? Especially when things are taken out, and functionality is lost just to appease a stupid gimmick. Have we gone so far that all we care about are aesthetics? I'd much prefer a 2 inch laptop that could do what my Desktop does, over a shitty thin laptop with capabilities a netbook could beat out.

I could have sworn the worlds thinnest notebook was the Voodoo Envy 133.

Adamo is the name of a FTTH company in Spain that offers 100/20 Mbps for 29 euros a month or 100/100 Mbps for 49 euros a month. I wonder if Dell will be allowed to used that name in Spain or if they'll have to change it.

Here's the web page:

Looks like it actually tapers to thin.... SO while it may be the thinnist... I doubt it actually truly is.

I don't think that picture is of the Adamo, as it appears much thicker than the MBA.

@TheFace: "however, are some details about Dell’s upcoming Studio XPS 13"

You should learn to read before writing.

It's Ashley *Vance* of the NYT, formerly of The Register. And what's up with truncated news headlines on the tomshardware.com homepage? Tom's is starting to slide....
