Dell Adamo vs. MacBook Air

Weight

Dell doesn’t even begin to compete on this relatively objective metric: the Adamo weighs four pounds while the Air weighs a full pound less.

So if you factor “feel” into this category, there’s at least something to be said for the Dell.

Its a nice secondary laptop for people w/ more than one computer (since both adamo and air are kind of underpowered). Although the Mac air looks nice, i decided to buy this sucker because i dont want to look like a pretentious hipster when im studying @ school. Besides, I need this to run windows for pirating stuff and testing out software. Also the black adamo looks less feminine
