    thanks IUcandi for doing a good post... i stumbled across it searching the web w/ google for pics of these laptops. surprising how few there are... except on this board ;)

    as good as IUcandi's post is it would've been good just to see them all at the same place with no links.

    so i invite anyone who wants to post pics. please no text. just pics. niiice.
    for the fellow dell buyer who needs help deciding or is just waiting for their sexy color to come in the mail....

    how's that for a first post! :rolleyes:

    I can't vote because I can't choose just one, lol...I ordered Midnight Blue without even thinking about it, then came to this forum and realized how sexy Alpine White and Espresso Brown are...thanks a lot guys, lol...

    I wonder if anyone has actually received their laptop and regretted their color choice...?

    As an update, I just called a sales rep and asked about Alpine White, and she said it's been discontinued...that makes me sad--I was actually thinking about reordering it and returning the blue--but I guess it makes my decision a bit easier...

    You will like the blue. I doubted my choice, too, but I was amazed when I got it. There are not any pictures that will do the color justice. The picture in your sig is not even near the real color. It's dark.

    So did I...it's still an option on the website, so I guess the only way to know for sure is to try to order one...

    I was never really thrilled about the white color, but I suppose it's a dumb choice to discontinue it. Some people would prefer the white over another color.
    Speaking of colors, I think Dell should add new colors, like a dark green, light blue and orange even.

    I'd have liked an emerald green.
    Or neon purple.
    Or blue that wasn't so dark that it looked black.

    Or maybe Dell could have a color matching service where they paint your laptop the color that you want it... it couldn't make the laptop delays too much longer, could it?? :p

    I like the yellow... but I canceled mine in favor of a faster-shipping Vostro.

    It was so hard making a decision for Vostro color.

    I just got my midnight blue inspiron and absolutely love the color! By itself it looks black at most angles, its only when there is a light reflecting on it does it change colors, or if its sitting right next to a true black object do you detect the color. I love it!
