Gizmodo cornered Michael Dell at the ‘All Things Digital’ conference and managed to get some shots of his hot new companion.
Long rumored after the ’success’ of the EEE (which amounted to little more than geek hype and some misguided purchasers jumping on a bandwagon), Dell’s entry into this market looks very promising.
Most likely based on Intel’s Atom CPU platform, and probably available with a dual core option, the new mini Inspiron will be a big step up from VIA C7 and 700 Mhz Pentium-M based offerings available from Asus and Everex right now. A usable 9″ screen 1024*600 and some decent storage options (2.5 magnetic or SSD) address two more of my EEE beefs. The only thing we need now is pricing.
And the color is cool too.
