Dell's new Adamo notebook known for its portability is out. It is not only super sleek but has a very elegant and fashionable look to it. This stylish notebook features a 1.2 GHz Intel Core2Duo processor, 2 GB memory, 128GB solid state drive, two USB ports, one USB/eSATA port and a display port. As powerful as this machine is, its looks are the high point. It also comes with a controversial gloss screen.

"The Adamo's scalloped keys on the keyboard make touch typing easier and the sleek polished finish gives it a nice glow," says John New, Dell's executive for consumer marketing. The colors available are black onyx and white Pearl. As far as size goes, the Adamo is 13.03 inches wide, 9.5 inches deep and a uniform 0.65 inches thick. It weighs four pounds, but that's because Dell wasn't aiming for ultra light anyway.

"If it is just about weight, we have ultra thin 2-pounds laptops from the Latitude line," New says. "But we wanted something that would have full size ports and options such as external Blu-ray drive." One nice feature is that the Adamo includes covers designed by Tumi, a very stylish laptop tote for women and a rugged laptop bag. The Adamo comes at a heavy price tag of $2000 for the basic model and $2700 for the higher end one.
