Thanks for your interest and comments on the new Dell notebook designs. We actually do make extensive use of feedback in the design process. We run the color choices through focus groups. We reach out to customers who have agreed to participate in surveys and ask for their thoughts on design aspects. We take feedback and make changes for the next generation of products on any number of details, be it the entire “package” to size of the LCD latch, the position of the USB ports, the feel of the touchpad buttons, etc. For users who include “Style/Design” in their top two purchase criteria, we recommend the XPS line. XPS combines elegant styling with performance features, hence the higher price point. For customers who want to ability to customize the internal technology and features (e.g. AMD or Intel; Integrated graphics or discrete, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, mobile broadband or all three) along with the size / color (14, 15 or 17 inch-display; one of eight colors) we have the truly versatile Inspiron line. We agree with you that aesthetics plays an important role in the purchase of a notebook and rest assured, customers are helping us refine our designs all the time. Keep the feedback coming.
