Go All MJ With the Dell Vostro V130's Hyperbaric Cooling System

The thin and light Dell Vostro V130 comes in multiple colors (including red) and weighs in a 3.5 lbs. What’s under the hood? An HDMI port, two USB port, and a Core i3 or i5 ULV processor. I know, right? It supports WiMAX, Bluetooth, and WiFi. → Read More

Dell Vostro 3000-series: You know, for small businesses and entrepreneurs

So you’re hopping on a flight and you sit next to a sexy member of the opposite sex. You’ve got to get some work done so you whip out your nasty laptop, a fat and ugly IT department-supplied monstrosity (probably from Dell or HP). Your seatmate looks over, idly contemplating your potential as a lifemate, and sees your junk laptop and starts reading the Skymall catalog. After all, laptop makers for years have been saying that a persons value as a genetic donor is wrapped up in the look and feel of their hardware.

That’s right: if you don’t buy something from the Dell Vostro 3000-series, you will die alone. → Read More

Dell Vostro V13 takes styling cues from Adamo, but not the high price tag

Oh boy, take a look at this. Dell’s apparently porting the whole super slim Adamo idea to its more affordable line of Vostro business machines. → Read More

Dell Vostro A90 available — it's like a Dell Mini 9 except it says Vostro A90 instead

You’re a serious business person who needs a serious, um, netbook like the Dell Vostro A90. You can’t show up to a sales pitch with a weiner-ish sounding Dell Mini! There’s nothing mini about your can-do attitude and proven track record. The Dell Vostro A90 may simply be a Dell Mini 9 in sell-the-sizzle black but in this tough economy, image matters more than anything when it comes to your bottom line. → Read More

Dell small biz 16:9 widescreen Vostro starts at $379

Hey now, here’s something you don’t see every day. It’s a true 16:9 display in a business notebook for way, way cheap. Dell’s Vostro A860 line starts at under $400 (that’s after instant savings – it’s normally $448) and features a 15.6-inch display with a 1366 x 768 resolution. The notebook weighs in at 5.4 pounds, too, which isn’t bad for a unit of this size. There are four models available, running from $379 to $664 after instant savings ($448 to $930 regularly). The specs are pretty much what you’d expect from lower-end business notebooks: integrated graphics, 1GB to 2GB of RAM, 120GB to 250GB hard drive, one-year warranty, and stuff like that. Still, the 16:9 display will be great for… um… watching movies at work, I guess. [via Electronista] → Read More

Dell Vostro A90: a netbook for the suits

Dell has taken the Inspiron Mini 9 netbook and dressed it up for the business types. The innards are exactly the same as the pedestrian counterpart with an Intel 1.6 Atom CPU, 8GB SSD, 1GB of RAM and a 8.9-inch screen. So far the stark black netbook is announced only for the Japanese market and carries an astonishing high price of ¥92,830 ($999 USD), and unless this netbook fad takes off here in the States, chances are the Vostro A90 will stay over in Tomorrow Land. We don’t need another netbook here anyway. → Read More
