After having officially launched its new Core i7-based Studio XPS 435 desktop behemoth, Round Rock, Texas-based Dell has finally decided to allow its customers to purchase the new 10-inch Inspiron Mini netbook. The new Inspiron Mini 10 has just gone on sale in the U.S. with a starting price tag of just $399. Unfortunately, users will still have to wait for their purchased systems to arrive, as the preliminary ship date is April the 2nd.The latest Inspiron Mini 10 netbook comes as Dell's response to the high number of 10-inch netbooks that have recently been launched on the market. It still boasts Intel's Atom platform, but provides users with some slightly different configuration options, including a new processor. In fact, the Inspiron Mini 10 is among those few netbook systems that allow users to choose from either a 1.33GHz Atom X520 CPU, running at 1.33GHz, or a 1.6GHz Atom X530. The difference between the two options will up the price tag by $50,over the basis of $399.
Other system specifications are pretty much what you would expect from a netbook, that is, 1GB of RAM and a 160GB, 5400rpm SATA hard drive. Aside from these options, users will be left with choosing the netbook's coloring theme. The basic Inspiron Mini 10 model comes with a black color option, but for an extra of $30 users will be granted the opportunity to choose between “alpine white,” “new cherry red,” “ice blue,” “jade green,” or “promise pink.” If you decide to go for the last one, Dell promises to donate $5 to the Susan G. Komen for the Cure charity.
Additional features include a built-in WiFi g connectivity option, integrated webcam and a 3-cell battery, which doesn't sound very promising if you are looking for a longer battery life.

Dell introduced Adamo, competitor of MacBook
After much anticipation and a series of articles surfacing on the web, prior to the debut of this year’s Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Nevada, Dell has finally introduced its latest portable computer system, the Dell Adamo. Claimed to be the company’s response to Apple’s thin MacBook Air, or to the Envy notebook from HP’s Voodoo PC, the Adamo appears like yet another sleek-looking 13-inch notebook waiting to be embraced by all those tech fashionistas out there. There aren’t any specific technical details, but the laptop is expected to become available later this year.A number of blog sites have managed to grab several pictures of Dell’s new pride and joy, which can also be seen in the gallery below. As you’ll be able to appreciate for yourself from these images, the Adamo appears to have combined just the right design elements, allowing it to appeal to those consumers out there that are looking for a PC response to Apple’s MacBook Air.
Despite no specific details on the part of the Round Rock, Texas-based PC vendor, the Adamo is expected to come out with a rather expensive price tag, specifically due to its unique design. Additionally, Dell has said that in the development of the new Adamo it has made useof high quality materials, yet another reason for which the upcoming thin laptop is probably aimed at those with more “generous” pockets.
Dell’s Adamo is undoubtedly thinner than most notebooks on the market, but given these early pictures, it doesn’t appear to be a real competitor for the MacBook Air. However, Adamo’s design features could also set the system as a real challenger for Apple’s MacBook Pro.
The device has been showcased at CES, which is where Dell has also introduced a couple of other new products, including the new Mini 10, another of the company’s portable computer systems ready to take advantage of Intel’s successful Atom platform. The fellows over at engadget were lucky enough to get a hands-on experience with the new Dell laptop, also providing a photo gallery and a video.

Round Rock, Texas-based Dell has recently announced the introduction of eight new tower, blade and rack-mount PowerEdge servers, designed to take advantage of the just introduced quad-core Opteron processors, designed by AMD. The new PowerEdge servers and blades build on AMD's 45nm-based quad-core Opterons, codenamed Shanghai, are meant to deliver better virtualization performance, and to help customers reduce IT complexity and costs."Dell understands how to give you the most compute power for your IT dollar. So, we've designed our AMD processor-based servers and blades to be powerful and virtualization-ready, but simple and affordable," said Brad Anderson, senior vice president, Dell's Business Product Group.
AMD's Shanghai Opteron processors are now powering Dell's two- and four-socket PowerEdge servers, including three of the PC vendor's blade servers, namely the M905, M805, M605. In addition, four of Dell's rack servers (R905, R805, 2970, SC1435) and one of its tower servers (T605) have also been featured with the new quad-core."AMD has worked hard to develop advanced virtualization capabilities as part of our new 45nm Quad-Core AMD OpteronTM processor," said Patrick Patla, vice president and general manager, Server and Workstation division, AMD.

Despite being one of the most recently arrived players on the netbook market, Round Rock, Texas-based Dell appears to have grown quite fond of the newly emerged PC category. After launching its 9-inch, Atom-powered Inspiron Mini 9, designed to compete with similar netbook systems on the market, the company has now taken things to a new level. The next step for Dell was that to a 12-inch portable system that provides the basics in portable computing technology, namely Internet access, music and video rendering, and office-related applications, all packed in a small, lightweight form factor.Rumored as on the verge of being launched since early last month, the new Inspiron Mini 12 netbook has now been released in Japan by the systems vendor. The first of its kind, in the sense that it is built with a 12-inch widescreen display, which can output images at a maximum resolution of 1280 by 800 pixels, the new Inspiron Mini 12 netbook is also based on Intel's Atom platform. The only difference is that it features a few changes over all those 9-inch and 10-inch netbooks on the market, including Dell's very own Inspiron Mini 9. Aside from the larger display, Dell's latest netbook can be equipped with either the Atom Z520 processor, running at 1.33GHz, or the 1.6GHz Z530 Atom CPU.It would appear that Dell decided to change some of the specifications on its most recent netbook, thus distancing it from all the other Atom-powered devices of the kind. Aside from the different processor, users will also get a different integrated graphics solution with the Intel GMA 500. Other specifications include a 60GB 4200RPM SATA hard drive, 1GB of DDR2 memory, and built-in Bluetooth and 802.11 b/g wireless connectivity. The netbook can be powered by either a 3-cell battery or a 6-cell battery priced at $79, the latter being said to deliver up to 6 hours of power.
The netbook is expected to hit the States sometime next month with a starting price tag that will settle under $600. Another detail worth mentioning is that the 12-inch netbook will be shipped with Windows Vista Home Edition, which, given the system's specifications, might not provide the required performance experience.
