I have the same computer. I want to know if the fans on your Adamo are loud..cuz mine are really loud :( ** PLZ reply**

[ThoughtsMedia]

@MegaAdamo13 I don't have the Adamo any more - it was a review loaner. But I don't remember it being loud...I'd contact Dell tech support if I were you.

@ThoughtsMedia when u review sumin and u wanna keep it can u get it for a discount or do they make u pay in full?

[ThoughtsMedia]

@kixmgc Sometimes there's an editorial discount, but not always. With Dell I don't think there is for instance.

what is SSD???

[ThoughtsMedia]

@FFvs13noctis Solid State Drive. It's a storage device that takes the place of a hard drive; it uses flash memory (like your digital camera memory card) and has no moving parts.

@MrAlbania4life At the time, it was a $2000 laptop with an SSD...51 seconds is pathetic in terms of boot time for that price point and having an SSD.

I have the Acer Gemstone for £300 , [Guessin like $500 , Guess tho :L] With 4gb Ram 250 Gb Hard Disk , Im glad that I waited 2 years for a good laptop - It was the best sale of my life as it should have been 500 quid when it came out !

Does it have Speakers ???

Lol Jokes !

[Jonafin4]

@FFvs13noctis It means Solid State Drive. It uses flash memory which is quicker than a hard drive

[naveenc69]

@FreekicksandTricks they actually lowered the price A LOT a while ago but then they discontinued it lol

[mistamattjr]

this things not worth $2 let alone $2000

[FreekicksandTricks]

So basically its a TERRIBLE laptop. You could build a high performance gaming PC for that much, even buy a MAC. Unbelievable that for 2G you get a miserable 2GB RAM and when you pay 2.7G you get 2GB more. DELL-graceful
