    Umm... here is a site that shows the colors. they don't look as fancy as the dell pic makes them look! Scroll down on the same page of the site and you'll see a SHOCKING difference

    For all you 1420 owners who have colored laptops (outside of black) do the colors really look that faded??

    dell didn't do any major alterations to their pictures

    if you take your pictures with light sources directly reflecting back at the camera you'll get similar pictures as dell advertised
