relook your portable PCs

-20 points posted to Laptops by tm 02/23/07

Dell range of portable PC haven't changed look for a very long time.
The last changes are not happy ones.
One can sense the attempt to do something but it is a failed attempt would it be just to have sedate looking PCs.

I'm not looking for a good looking PC but at least if it could avoid being ugly : too thick, plastic apparence that dull and awfull brown. Even the new silver seems a cheap relooking.

In France (well I live) Dell is the choice of "poor" or greedy companies, very little chances that someone starts a Dell PC at home, generally it is a professionnal PC from a greedy company.

Their apparence make them look like devices designed under soviet era, when look was considered under the utility aspect.

PS I second the idea of having linux PC available, because with vista we will have less and les the opportuniy to keep XP, and if we have several computers we don't want to be pushed into taking vista, with its probable consequence of having to double the memory for hardly the same performance.

Absolutely agree with you on this, Dell PC's are boring and no wonder they are losing to HP in Notebook sales. I mean come on can't those Marketing engineers still make out the problem.. Geeeees, for all the pay you get, if only a child were given the choice to decide, Dell wouldn't be the choice....
