I also thought that they’re trying to mimic Apple’s unibody, but it seems a better thing thing than unibody.

Looks like it took Dell only 5 months to copy Apple’s all in one unibody construction method: http://www.geekbrief.tv/adamo-by-dell

The advertising for me is, annoying. Apple knows they make beautiful, amazing attention to detail and functional products. The Apple ads scream look at me with my ugly skinny models and the pretty views. I’m sure the Dell is a great notebook but show the laptop not this really bad gap ad. Maybe I’m being too critical but the ads and the site drives me nuts.

So they want to give you a $10 t-shirt with their logo on it so you can give them potentially tens of thousands of $ in advertising? They’re pretty smart.

Nice looking notebook. Unfortunately, it still runs a fugly OS. You can put lipstick on a pig….

This is such a copy off the new unibody MacBooks. But what is that ugly thing that sticks out at the end?

Hopefully some of the manufacturers get on board.

As computerworld noted, mac buyers (me being 1) still pay more for the guts (1.6x PC parts)

on a completely random note, the twitter response/ties to this thread threw me for a loop.. I was a little confused at why you all kept linking back to this same page, haha.

and yes, looks good. finally some competition. though, it will probably cost as much, and thus, I’d probably get a mac. but if you get more for the money, which is why I had to abandon apple, dell might have another customer.

This beautiful computer is the first step to Dell becoming more popular and seen as a better computer. This system sets the stage for Microsoft so they can open and roll out the new Windows 7, and maybe, just maybe, Microsoft and PC creators will begin to focus their attention to beauty and sophistication, not just features and behind the scenes work.

Given a choice between Pepsi and Coke. The Dell is a Pepsi at the end of the day is it not? If you want the real unibody, then you’ll get a MacBook or MacBook Pro. All depends on the pricing, oh and the availability, neither of which Dell have communicated, as yet?

Wow that is pretty sweet. I love my Dell Studio Hybrid for streaming content to my TV. Just got my Dell Mini 9 and it’s perfect for the road. Guess that makes me a Dell fan… welcome to the club Cali!

Its about time! As a Linux geek looking for a durable, head turning Apple alternative, I hope it plays nice with Linux. I have always been confused as to why nobody was really taking Apple on in this market. The other companies are slower at innovation, I guess.

It Looks very good, i like it! Though the manufacture of it reminds me a lot of the MacBook, its nice to see that Dell have twigged onto the Uni Body “Style” Construction.

LOOKS like Dell is building a notebook as BEAUTIFUL as a MacBook – and that’s true. It looks nice. Of course, we all know that beauty is only skin deep. I’m a Mac because of the OS and the customer service – to which Dell and all the other sad little PCs can’t hold a candle.

I like the aluminum build similar to new Mac Book.

I assume it will be normal PC style where they have commercials and briefs and notes about it… only to wait months to send it out and then its already behind spec. vs Apple who announce and release usually same day.

By: @WOnet

@WOnet — Tue, 10 Mar 2009 16:13:03 +0000

It is as beautiful as a MacBook, but being a Dell, it is as functional as any other WinBlows machine. Beauty isn’t everything. It has to work too. Nice try Dell.

Beautiful machine with the wrong OS! Really nice machine though!

Wait a sec…adamo!?!?!?

What are they thinking!? That brings up all the memories of the Coleco Adam…not a good thing!

2 strikes against Dell’s marketing:
1) The name
2) Big budget marketing…offering you a T-Shirt for your time and effort?!

C’mon Dell – You’ve got a BEAUTIFUL machine there…don’t falter on marketing! Learn from Commodore!

It’s an interesting look, though it would appear they’re trying to mimic Apple’s unibody. The new Macbook Pros have much more thought in their design though. I dislike that the screen on this one is set forward on the computer… That’s just my personal opinion though!
