Yeah saw that when the origanlly posted. Sounds like Dell thinks they can suddenly start charging Apple prices for slick looking Dell hardware. I can see the regular Adamo having a niche following but the 9 will fail misserably. This is not the economic climate where people are going to spend $900 for a netbook that doesn't have and Apple logo on it.

They've already been trying to create a luxury line for the past 7 years with the XPS series of hardware, though it has only been the last 1-2 years where they are really looking into the design aspect as well.
