I normally consider Dell to be a corporate behemoth who panders to the mainstream and is hopelessly out of touch with what high-tech consumers want, but they have surprised me with the Inspiron Mini. First it was Ubuntu, and now…it’s available in pink! I’d think they could have come up with a more creative name [...]
