| Dell says Adamo XPS to ship December 22 |
|
So far all of the news we have only known about the Dell Adamo XPS laptop has been extremely impressive, previous news included a comparison between the XPS and the MacBook Air, an unboxing video and hands-on photos. Details regarding shipping relates for the highly anticipated laptop, according to a recent article it seems that it may be available just in-time for Christmas. The features 9.99mm (0.39-inch) thick laptop will come with 13.4-inch WLED display, Core 2 Duo ULV processors, and 4GB DDR3 RAM. The base specs include a 128GB Solid State Drive, Intel's 1.4GHz Core SU9400 CPU, 4GB of RAM, a 13.4-inch LED display, a 20Wh battery, and integrated Intel GS45 graphics. Beyond the usual warranty and software options, choosing can be added to add an external Blu-ray drive for $199, a 500GB external hard drive for $175 or an extended 40Wh battery for $100. Previously they had a chance to take the new Adamo for a test drive, and we were impressed with its thin 10mm design and intrigued by its tilted keyboard, but concerned that it was overpriced and underpowered in a very value-conscious market. Adamo has always been Dell's special design offering and we can notice this in its latest version of it is the XPS which has a beautiful split back which hinges out into an elegant balancing position, lifting the whole computer off the desk and into a tilted open position. It's also ranks as the thinnest laptop on the market - at 9.9mm thick the whole computer is in the size of a magazine and actually slenderer than some phones. Playing around with an XPS makes us feel pretty wowed by their looks, feel and the innovative hinge. Laptops such as Sony's Vaio X and HP's Envy 13 are a high-end concept product which invariably shows their technology developments to mainstream systems by their work.
