    Any ideas when Dell will release a non-fugly m1730? You know, one without a paintjob that looks like a 1970s pimp-mobile and without a white keyboard that literally looks like it's replacement keyboard for the real one that broke?

    I'm not waiting around for a non-fugly m1730, so Dell has lost my business.
