So?
Next time you pee yourself with excitement at the thought of being the first to comment on an Engadget story, how about you try to seizure out more than 1 word?
Ok. Why would anyone be so excited about a new look, when the old XT was overpriced and underpowered? I'd be happier with the same old chassis with some beefed up innards and a price tag that is cut in half.
Excuse me while I go change my underwear.
Looks pretty sweet.
If at first you don't succeed, try, try again.
if at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you
That is a confusing rendering.
It looks like the PC is sitting on shadow of 2 other PCs. Why did they do that?
Agreed. Looks like crap with the shadows. It's hard to tell what it looks like.
"Dell also plans to replace one of the three USB ports with eSATA, a definite trend for Dell laptops in 2008"
I bought a Dell Latitude at the end of last summer that already had one of the USB ports replaced with an eSATA.
Estimated Price: approximately four times the cost of a fully loaded x61t.
The first manufacturer who comes out with a multitouch laptop as nice as the iphone's touchscreen and at a reasonable price and I will buy it. Apple should not have wasted time on the mac air but should have introduced a multitouch laptop.
I wish I could find one widescreen 12" laptop with WSXGA+ resolution.
They did. Apple updated the Macbook Pro with a multitouch trackpad ealier this month. Where have you been?
With ubuntu please Mr Dell...
And I care, because....?
VGA still? DVI please.
has anybody seen my baseball. I lost it and I tryed to use my old xt to find it, but it does not have enough processing power. maybe this new fancy laptop can!!!!!
Latitude XT - So easy, even Bush can use it.
Nothing special on the outside perfectly compliments the fact that there is nothing to speak of on the inside. It seems that dell is usually hit or miss with these things and this is most definitely a miss.
I just bought a faster, fully loaded thinkpad x61 with all the trimmings (battery slice, dock, ac/dc adapter, multi-touch screen etc) with a 3yr onsite warranty for $300 LESS than Dell's starting price for the xt...My advice to Dell on the XT2? SOLVE THAT PRICING & PERFORMANCE PROBLEM.
THis would be pretty cool
