This looks very nice. Scroll down on the page a bit to se the 'Ruby' version. It's cute! Like a girly Ferarri. :D

Dell has actually rebranded that notebook as the Latitude X1. I've been looking for a laptop myself for a while and this one is... um, cute! Lack of expansion options and price (~$1500 base model) made me look elsewhere. I read some reviews of the Dell version and it's completely fanless. The bottom apparently gets a bit warm, but other than that it's totally silent (except for HDD seek, of course). BTW, the hard drive is a 1.8", not the usual 2.5" size.

Is this my first post? Hell, it must be. I've been lurking for a long time now, it's about time. I have a lot of giving back to do, I guess. :wink:

EDIT: Ah, upon closer inspection it seems that this isn't exactly the Latitude X1. Very similar chassis. The X1 has an i915GMS chipset.

EDIT mkII: Bah! You implied fanless in the topic line. Pardon my redundancy.
