Dell Adamo XPS Reviewed: Expensive, Stylish, and No Longer Available at Dell.com

Act now! Get it while supplies last! As we (and others) noted in our review of the Dell Adamo XPS, the world’s thinnest notebook is no longer available for sale on Dell’s Web site; consumers with deep pockets can only purchase this ultra-thin system on Best Buy and Amazon’s Web sites.

This thin and stylish notebook, which debuted this past fall, was only going to be made in limited numbers, according to a press representative for Dell, which is why the Adamo XPS is slowly fading from the scene.

If you’re still interested in picking up this system, its price has dropped about $100, to $1,905. For that, you get an Intel U9400 processor, a 128GB SSD, 3 hours and 46 minutes of battery life, and a design that’ll make others drool. If you’re more interested in spending your two grand wisely, the Sony Vaio Z ($2,099) offers two SSDs, about three times the performance, and scads more endurance. But, it’s not as thin, and that’s what you’re getting the Adamo XPS for, anyway.
