Dell's ultra-thin Adamo laptop set free

We're live at the Dell presser and the Adamo (pronounced uh-dahm-o) is official. The laptop was briefly presented and then whisked off stage without specs or prices. All we know is that it's crazy thin and represents the new luxury design franchise within Dell's laptop lineup. More as we get it.

can it copy and paste?

[Phoenix @ Jan 9th 2009 11:49AM]

Does it run WebOS?

[Daniel Pachinger @ Jan 9th 2009 11:56AM]

yeah, you'll have to copy&paste. because there is no keyboard.

[imacmatt09 @ Jan 9th 2009 11:58AM]

Does it cut cake?

[Ellianth @ Jan 9th 2009 12:02PM]

In an attempt to make people excited about their product, they annoyed everyone. They might as well have just brought out a piece of plastic.

What is it with models and crazy ass haircuts? Could she look any uglier?

She literally looks like the black senator from the second and third Matrix movies.

[B3astofthe3ast @ Jan 9th 2009 11:49AM]

I don't like that tab that sticks out from the back which I'm assuming is the battery or something...not that I'll see when I'm using it but still...

[Skeepax @ Jan 9th 2009 12:05PM]

Actually, I think it would be great once the connectors are back there, I hate power cords coming out the side...

[keep6 @ Feb 9th 2009 9:13PM]

Although I agree with how you think it looks, it will probably make for a pretty good grip.

[Joseph @ Jan 9th 2009 12:18PM]

All down to preference, I hate them at the back, if you use your laptop on your lap or tilt it forward for ward ever reason ( like to look at the bottom for example) would ruin a power cord at the back.

My ex had a Vaio with the PS at the back and its ruined, I have a Esprimo Mobile with one at the side ( its older) and the connection is still great :)

[dmblit_M @ Jan 9th 2009 8:12PM]

Dude the real reason is that your Esprimo is Siemens. Have you ever seen Siemens died?

[DirtyBird @ Jan 9th 2009 11:49AM]

Will it blend?

[B3astofthe3ast @ Jan 9th 2009 11:51AM]

Only if your blending with it.

[Scott @ Jan 9th 2009 12:04PM]

Lol, probably the funniest comment here. Shame no one understands it, except me.

[redraider @ Jan 9th 2009 6:48PM]

haha glorious

[nerdtalker @ Jan 9th 2009 12:08PM]

Will *YOU* blend?

[Esat Dedezade @ Jan 9th 2009 12:09PM]

Scot, for the sake I my faith in the future of humanity I pray you're being sarcastic...

[Dustin Hess @ Jan 9th 2009 12:11PM]

I think it will.

[Esat Dedezade @ Jan 9th 2009 12:13PM]

[Kris120890 @ Jan 9th 2009 12:14PM]

Yeah because scott is the only one on the internet.

[Mobius_1 @ Jan 9th 2009 12:15PM]

lol Esat, that's awesome. And I, too, hope Scot's being sarcastic. FYI, Scot, that "joke" isn't funny no more.

[Mikey @ Jan 9th 2009 12:16PM]

@ Scott

If you are thinking of the 3D animation software I still don't get it. Is there is any way that is actually funny?

[Boarderwoot @ Jan 9th 2009 12:17PM]

Esat, either you are of alien descent or have an unnaturally large forehead. I'm putting my money on the first one.

[STINK @ Jan 9th 2009 12:18PM]

Don't mess with Scott of teh Internets, because he is of teh Internets

[Esat Dedezade @ Jan 9th 2009 12:18PM]

I take no credit for the ASCII :)

Also, Boarderwood: could I not be both?

[DirtyBird @ Jan 9th 2009 12:25PM]

Wow, you all have no concept of irony do you? Since Dell won't answer any of the important questions such as processor, size, ram, video card, then why not ask them the stupid questions and see if they will answer. You all are pretty lame to jump on the "lame comment" bandwagon.

[Boarderwoot @ Jan 9th 2009 12:34PM]

ur s000 lame ur motha thinkz ure lame

[Esat Dedezade @ Jan 9th 2009 12:56PM]

I think a couple more replies and the OP's inbox will implode!!!

Yay!

[Brandon Thompson @ Jan 9th 2009 12:58PM]

That is hilarious. i love that site!

[Grindboy @ Jan 9th 2009 11:51AM]

Is it a good idea to microwave it?

[sokka @ Jan 9th 2009 11:54AM]

Can it run Crysis?

[dzhiurgis @ Jan 9th 2009 12:10PM]

Does it sell on *crisis*?

[Esat Dedezade @ Jan 9th 2009 11:55AM]

*Sigh*

F'ing internet memes....

[nerdtalker @ Jan 9th 2009 12:09PM]

F'ing idiots who think they're so Über cool repeating them endlessly...

[Precurse @ Jan 9th 2009 12:12PM]

When's the internet going to require a parent permission slip again....

[ProfessorDex @ Jan 9th 2009 12:15PM]

The same time parents are required to have a license to give birth!

[Mobius_1 @ Jan 9th 2009 12:25PM]

So you are only allowed 1 internet in China?

[Mike @ Jan 9th 2009 12:34PM]

@mobius1

Yep, the one they let you see.

[Smi @ Jan 9th 2009 11:55AM]

Wow, that is very thin and stylish, just from those angles!

Also, theory. Maybe they've not shown us more than that glimpse because they've not got a working one yet? Maybe this is ...well, pretty formed vapour at the moment.

[joe23521 @ Jan 9th 2009 12:05PM]

Should've had Jack Wong give this presser.

[[e-mail] @ Jan 9th 2009 11:55AM]

They didn't even switch it on.

Total and ultimate fuxxing fail.

[ProfessorDex @ Jan 9th 2009 12:16PM]

Coming from Dell, this surprises you how?

[Tim @ Jan 9th 2009 1:42PM]

Clearly. (...?)

[James @ Jan 9th 2009 11:56AM]

In the last photo, that model looks like she's wishing she was at "some other company's" press event

[Jomolungma @ Jan 9th 2009 12:07PM]

I think that's why she's a professional model. You can't be a pro unless you've mastered that look.

[Nicolas @ Jan 9th 2009 12:28PM]

In fact, I think she uses the "full of wax"-Adamo to check herself and suddenly realized how dumb she looks.

=> At least, it reflects :)

[Malikye @ Jan 9th 2009 12:30PM]

@ Jomolungma,

you mean like Blue Steel or Magnum?
