$3,500 for 20 pounds Dell XPS M2010
Dell on Wednesday (May, 31) introduced a so-called luggable computer that’s either a blast from the past or a leap into the future. With the weight of 20-pounds, XPS M2010 incorporates a large adjustable 20-inch LCD, two hard drives with up to 120GB capacity each, a Core Duo processor and 4GB of dual-channel (667MHz) memory, speakers offer crisp, rich audio, detachable Bluetooth keyboard and Media Center remote will work well from the couch or during a presentation. All this will cost you at least $3,500.
Senior vice President of Dell Americas, Rosendo G. Parra, described Dell XPS M2010 as your personal entertainment engine.
“You can watch a DVD on a beautiful 20-inch screen, but then take that device to the office to do a presentation. You can play the latest video game, while recording TV and streaming live
video. You can chat with friends while using video while riding the train,” Parra said. “The PC is now the personal entertainment engine.”
But 20 pounds are heavy enough to be disqualified as a portable computer. And $3,500 for a computer is also too much.
