But much to the dismay of those attending, it was hard to get a clear look at the machine. A model carried the notebook around in front of the room in only one hand but in low light, then she was whisked away from the stage.
According to Engadget, all they could get out of Dell execs was that "Alienware is [Dell's] top performance brand, Adamo is our top design brand."
Dell consumer sales and marketing vice president Michael Tatelman said the Adamo will represent Dell's "luxury franchise", and to expect a release in the first half of this year.

From the engadget photo's it looks closer to the 2006 Black MacBook than the 2008 MacBook Air.
The Air is difficult engineering and it has a high price because of it.
No matte screen for you.
Very nice looking.
Definitely a smudge magnet.

I don't think this beats the MBA by any stretch of the imagination, but still I can't help but wonder how they are going to use that tagline. Even if they say it's the World's thinnest "PC" or "Windows" laptop, just fire up BootCamp on the Air and there go those claims as well.
Plus, would it really count anyway if you try to make your portables thinner by making the footprint larger (don't forget the battery hanging off the back)?!

It will be packed full of smudge!
