Dell Adamo gets jammed inside another Dell laptop: yes, it's that thin!

Check this one out -- if there was any doubt as to the thinness of the Adamo, just for fun, some young modder removed the innards of a chunky Dell laptop and threw a Dell Adamo inside of it. Pretty thrilling stuff as you can imagine -- hit up the source link for the video.

Cool Beans!

[djt Posted Jun 5th 2010 2:24AM]

@n19htmare Yeah, its funny. I've never liked that Adamo at all but I thought that video was pretty sweet. Almost makes me want to take a second look at it. My XPS m1330 is getting a little old.

@n19htmare

How cute. Now...if that present was for me...that's be kinda cool...and kinda creepy.

[uckApple Posted Jun 5th 2010 3:59AM]

@questionexclamation

This thing is actually very very powerful for how thin it is!

4GB Ram, 2.1Ghz Intel core 2 duo
250GB Storage
With Windows 7! WOW all that packed in a frikkin 16mm thin laptop! WOO

Doesn't mean anything if you can put this in a Dell laptop.

[bravokiloromeo Posted Jun 5th 2010 6:29AM]

I guess that's one way to make a case for it...

[ChrisSsk Posted Jun 5th 2010 8:50AM]

@uckApple Thats the regular Adamo, the one in the video is the Adamo XPS

1.4GHz Intel Core2Duo ULV ,128GB SSD, 4GB RAM and Windows 7 64-Bit and 9.99 mm thin.

[TinWard Posted Jun 5th 2010 8:59AM]

@n19htmare

Meh, it's been done. We get it, these laptops are thin, big deal.

It only has Intel graphics too and I have to say, the Adamo hinge design is the ugliest design I've ever seen.

[ranhalt Posted Jun 5th 2010 3:12PM]

@uckApple out of all of those things, it's the Windows 7 that I can't believe fits in a laptop that slim! I mean, the newer OS should add at least another 3mm to it, let alone the hard drive capacity.

[Massive Poop Posted Jun 5th 2010 6:08PM]

@ranhalt Yeah all that bloat ware and its still anarexic as my make belive girlfreind.

[kapanak Posted Jun 5th 2010 2:16AM]

Well...The price will make your wallet thin too...

[furquanatique Posted Jun 5th 2010 2:19AM]

@kapanak
Thinner that it already is?

[dark star Posted Jun 5th 2010 10:12AM]

@kapanak
once in awhile, i see a 40% off coupon at the microsoft store online. it comes down to about $1200 shipped. thats HOT for such a super skinny and lightweight laptop!

[NitOxYs Posted Jun 5th 2010 2:22AM]

I'm too drunk to care... Why is this news? Dells = THE DEVIL (This is about to get down ranked).

[NitOxYs Posted Jun 5th 2010 2:23AM]

@NitOxYs I think the people who do the news are drunk.

[djt Posted Jun 5th 2010 2:25AM]

@NitOxYs NORmally I would downrank you. ....but I've been drinking too!

[H264 Posted Jun 5th 2010 2:30AM]

@NitOxYs
We have unlimited juice? (Laughs.) This party is going to be off the hook.

[NitOxYs Posted Jun 5th 2010 2:36AM]

@H264 I wish we did, but then we'd probably die of alcohol poisoning

[H264 Posted Jun 5th 2010 3:02AM]

@NitOxYs
I'm guessing you've never watched Arrested Development.

[derX Posted Jun 5th 2010 3:07AM]

@NitOxYs

I don't understand the grammar. Why is it so good? You're supposed to be drunk. Remove some of that coherence and let the haha ensue.

[collindow Posted Jun 5th 2010 3:14AM]

@NitOxYs
I WISH I could be too drunk to care; but my Red Ale is still carbonating dammit.

[oldpass56 Posted Jun 5th 2010 5:32AM]

@NitOxYs Why do people get drunk and read engadget?
is it because they're proper hardcore nerds that can never leave the site, even at a party or are they lying?

[mmauve Posted Jun 5th 2010 2:25AM]

Cue Xzibit "Yo dawg" jokes in 3...2...1

[Clyzm Posted Jun 5th 2010 2:28AM]

@mmauve

Yo dawg, I heard you love tech hell, so I put a Dell in your Dell, so you can overheat while you overheat.

[mmauve Posted Jun 5th 2010 2:32AM]

@Clyzm lmao. alright, this article is now complete. I can sleep easy tonight.

[JimmyJimJim Posted Jun 5th 2010 2:26AM]

Ok, I can't read the source site, but it certainly seems like that was meant as a valentines gift or something for his girlfriend/wife.

[d3sc3nd3ncy Posted Jun 5th 2010 3:47AM]

@JimmyJimJim

Or both... If they are into that kind of thing.

[Gtrain Posted Jun 5th 2010 2:32AM]

Correction - It is more impressive as he put 2 in there, stacked on top of eachother, not one.

[RincewindWiz Posted Jun 5th 2010 4:46AM]

@Gtrain I was waiting for this comment - has no one else watched the video?

[Formul Posted Jun 5th 2010 5:36AM]

@Gtrain exactly, thats the most ipressive part of it ...

[JeremyBenthem Posted Jun 5th 2010 8:39AM]

@Gtrain
he probably could have stuffed a 3rd if he took out the LCD

[smartperson Posted Jun 5th 2010 2:34AM]

I can only imagine what the TSA would say/do when they X-Ray that particular Dell laptop...

[Tes Posted Jun 5th 2010 4:26AM]

@smartperson

They would see a motherboard, memory, GPU...you know, laptop stuff, and move on.

[F C Posted Jun 5th 2010 4:37AM]

@Tes

Or the dummy would scratch his head and backside at the same time, then move on.

[bathellfire Posted Jun 5th 2010 2:35AM]

Awesome! 2 crap computers can now fit one inside the other. I always knew that Dells were missing something. Now I got it.. this awesome feature. Now I can take a few Dells, stack them insde one another and throw them all away at once, with one gesture.

Btw, DELL, did you know that i can fit like 5 phones, 1 tablet and 1 laptop inside my desktop computer? Imagine that!

[einhanderkiller Posted Jun 5th 2010 2:39AM]

I press the play button but it does not play!

[annoynimous Posted Jun 5th 2010 2:47AM]

some foxconn employee got bored one day...

[F C Posted Jun 5th 2010 4:39AM]

@annoynimous

... decides to present creative gift to his boss...

[The Madman Posted Jun 5th 2010 5:20AM]

@F C ... with a love heart in sticky notes...

[F C Posted Jun 5th 2010 12:27PM]

@The Madman

...boss misunderstands gesture, loudly wishing employee was dead...

[Abacus Posted Jun 5th 2010 1:10PM]

@F C
the series of events then keeps repeating for some reason

[tusing Posted Jun 5th 2010 2:23PM]

@F C ...scream...

[Vexorg Posted Jun 5th 2010 2:58AM]

Yeah, but can he stuff two Gamecubes duct-taped together into a Wii?

[DougieBear Posted Jun 5th 2010 3:12PM]

@Vexorg

I thought the Wii already had the gamecubes insides.

Joking I love my Wii.

[jckchn Posted Jun 5th 2010 3:37AM]

So some idiot put garbage inside a garbage can. How is this news?

[Professor Hubert J Farnsworth Posted Jun 5th 2010 7:46AM]

@jckchn
Hey! we're not talking about your sex life here. Also it's news because it is about technology; and this being a technology website makes this article news.

[LiveFromThe215 Posted Jun 5th 2010 4:05AM]

Yo dawg!

We heard you like Dell Laptops so we put a Dell laptop in another Dell laptop so you can compute on the go while you compute on the go!!

[insert Xzibit pic here]
