Yeah but the 8600 is anything but sexy.

Does Dell still build their flagship with plastic on the cover? Grey plastic no less. Hah. And the 8600 is a little chubby dimension-wise.

Perhaps that's because it's a 15.4" widescreen? 😕

Now I'm confused. How does diagonal length add to the thickness of the laptop? By your measure, a Apple 17" powerbook should be 2.5" thick instead of a little over 1".
