Dell has released a few more snap shots of its new super thin Adamo XPS laptop. According to the hardware giant, excited fans of the new slim notebook asked for a few more photos to drool over—so Dell released two more shots to emphasize the sleekness of the 9.99-mm thin computer.

Most industry analysts predict Dell’s Adamo XPS design will give them a leg up on Apple, whose Mac Book Air measures 0.76 inches at its thinnest point. This slight PC has been under-wraps for a while and Dell is not being generous with details.
