Three months after it arrived, Dell Adamo has received a price cut. A price cut for the Adamo became inevitable once Apple slashed the price of its svelte MacBook Air -perceived to be Adamo’s archrival - in June. Prices of all Adamo ultraportables have been lowered.
The basic Dell Adamo is now available for $1500 as opposed to its original price of $1999. This places it on level ground with the entry-level MacBook Air in terms of price. The basic version has a 1.2GHz Core 2 Duo, 2GB of RAM and a 128GB SSD. But at the other end of the spectrum, the top-end Adamo variant still remains pricier than its MacBook Air counterpart. The new price of the top-end Adamo is $2,230. It features a 1.4GHz Core 2 Duo processor, a 128GB SSD, and 4GB RAM.

Ladies, stop the cat fight in the manly forum, please. Amado is overpriced, you can use the same amount of money or less to buy an XPS with better spec. If I'm Dell Executive, I'd fire the person in charge for pricing of this laptop.

trust dell to rip you off, who in there right mind would pay $2,230 for a dell pc thats got very little higher specs then its low end model like come on is really 0.2ghz and 2 gigs of ram extra worth $730 bucks cause if it is then i have a deal for you.but honestly.if i ever seen someone buy the 2230$ model id walk up to them n slap them upside the head. there not even gonna notice that extra 0.2ghz and for 50 bucks they can go to best buy n buy 2 sticks of 2gig ram n slap it in there and woo look you pretty much have the high end model. come on dell pull your head out of your ass.

I'm out of breath just from reading your post!
Might I suggest some proper punctuation and grammar to assist you in attempting to get your point across?

Because it takes an effort to read when it should have been easy with proper grammar. FYI, I did not even attempt to read your first post. Why waste posting a long post when it will be simply ignored, eh?
