Dell Laptop Reaches Luxury at End

Dell's new laptop has changed a lot, compared to its previous ones. Most of you will never see one of these unless you know someone who has one, and if someone has one, they are likely to keep it very close. I've been using one of these for a couple of days now, and it really is impressive in an artistic way.
There are two things you have to understand about the new Adamo laptop from Dell. The first is that it is an attempt to define a class of relatively exclusive luxury laptops, and the second is that it is the kind of artistic effort that, strangely enough, doesn't photograph well. Finished in brushed metal and glass, the notebook has to be touched and seen to be appreciated. Pictures just don't do it justice. (Dell did come close with this pretty incredible video, though.)
Laptop computers, particularly the very light ones, have an insubstantial feel to them, almost as if the vendor left out the good stuff. You don't talk about feel, because you are focused on other things. The Adamo is the first apparently weighted and balanced notebook. While not light, the Adamo has a substantial feel to it that folks connect to luxury, like a Rolex. The Adamo explores the same concept. It weighs in at a little over four pounds, certainly still lighter than a true heavyweight, but substantially heavier than a MacBook Air, or Lenovo’s X301.Inside, the laptop is all brushed metal and glass as well. Even the touch pad has the brushed-metal finish. Once again, the impression is one of luxury, and you can't help but notice the lack of stickers telling you what is inside the box.
The display is crystal clear, behind a glossy, edge-to-edge glass front. This does give a little glare, in exchange for building up the concept of exclusivity and luxury. Controls are simple, with a power switch and some media control switches on top of the Dell Laptop Keyboard. Nothing else to clutters or mars what is a simple and basic design.
Because this is more of a fashion statement than anything else, the laptop accessories are designed to enhance the experience. Right now you can get designer bags, a matching brushed metal power Dell Laptop Battery supply, and a laptop ac adapters, with more coming. This is an offering that appears designed to be admired more than being used.
Why not take action and buy one now?
