Interesting, you mean it's not a brick anymore? Do you have any linkage?

Hmmm... Inspiron 8500, no more thick, bulky, plastic case?

Right. But not till next year.

Yep. No linkage though, there's nothing on the web about it yet.

Well, there is one clone out there now: http://www.bestbuy.com/detail.asp?e=11178359

Looks nice, but the price is $400 too high for the best buy brand w/ a one year warranty.

So, manko, do you work for Dell? Is there any kind of linkage?

I just hope they add usb2 and other goodies to the 8000/4000 line...If that 4000 line lost a pound....

Hmm how good is the one offered by bestbuy. Vpr matrix??? Anyone have any experience? Does the thing have titanium shell?

Anyway just a thought: isnt metal going to weaken the WiFi signal? In that case isnt titanium going to reduce the signal received and transmitted through the build in antenna.

And the Deal is dead. I just went back to the site and tried out the pricing on the ADC member ordering site and it seems to be back to regular price.

That's wrong. You had me scared for a minute there though.

Yo,

If you live in Sacramento or Cuopertino (thats California) just find an Apple Employee, they get between $500 and $700 off the powerbooks once a year and between $300 and $500 off anytime.

FWIW
YMMV
IMHO
