It looks like something you’d see on a spaceship in Star Trek or Star Wars, except for the fact that it has the word “Dell” imprinted on the back of it. Behold; the Dell Adamo XPS laptop. Long known as the company that delivers ho-hum design and modest performance to thousands of US mega-corporations, Dell has finally created a product that both looks stunning and has the horsepower to actually get some work done.
The first thing you’ll notice about the Adamo is its thickness, or lack thereof, actually. Claimed by Dell to be the “thinnest computer in the world,” it comes in an impossibly thin 9.99 millimeters, which, for those keeping track, is almost a full 10 millimeters thinner then the MacBook Air!
The next thing you’ll notice about the Adamo is its strange “uprightness” when it’s fully opened (I’m afraid the best way to figure out what I’m describing is to simply look at the picture). It may look awkward at first, but this design actually offers two benefits: 1) It has a full-size keyboard—this may not seem like a big deal, unless you’ve ever been lucky enough to have used any of Dell’s previous business laptops and their remarkably tiny keys—and 2) It has a stunning 13.4-inch High-Definition Display.
Lastly, for those who care to know, Dell has also managed to cram a 1.4GHz Intel processor, 4GB of RAM, and a 128GB Solid State Drive into the Adamo, meaning it’ll handle Microsoft Office and pretty much anything you can find on the web with little or no effort.
Whether you’re a soon-to-be college student, who is always on-the-go, or a Youth Pastor in need of an ultraportable machine, the Dell Adamo XPS may just be a perfect fit for you.
