    Could it be that HDMI has replaced DisplayPort?

    I really like the angles back corners for plugs. Pretty nice hardware touch. Keyboard looks kind of like the consumer keyboards on the inspirons though..

    Not sure. Waiting for notebookcheck.com to post a version of their specs in English.

    I hope these photos are fake...looks too much like the XPS. Dunno why Dell has gone away with just a traditional business notebook look. Now I know I won't be buying a new E6x20 series notebook..

    To be fair though, looking back, ever since the later D series machines, Dell's always been the odd one out when it comes to business notebook design. I actually liked that aspect when I got my D630, that it wasn't all black and (relatively speaking) boring looking like the equivalent HP/Compaq or Lenovo.

    Dell, you just lost my business.
    1. These look very consumerish. Not a big fan of the rounded corners.
    2. They killed the 7-row keyboard. On the E6xxx line. At least Lenovo only did it to L-series and below and kept the 7-row on the T-series.
    3. Is that the same keyboard they use on the Inspirons? Those are terrible IMO, as the throw is way too short.
