It's a Dell, why are you surprised? All the Dell products I've seen have the same amount of design sense as the Windows XP Fisher-Price UI. Dell is a company that assembles computers. If you want fine architecture, you don't get a prefab house.
Sadly, none of the major computer manufacturers besides Apple seem to have any sense of design. The old ThinkPads (when they were still IBM) are the nearest competitor; at least they were solid, square, and black looking. Stylish, not so much, but at least they looked professional. (I guess Microsoft gave it a good try with the surface; the hardware at least looks kind of cool)
- aryastark 13y agoI disagree. I have an old IBM ThinkPad from the era when IBM still made PCs. Dell is pretty close. Their laptops are on the shitty Toshiba-ish side of things, granted (although higher quality build). But their monitors and keyboards are top notch. Simple, black, non-glossy bezel. USB ports on the side. Swivel, portrait, and height base adjustments. Their keyboards remain consistent with the 1980s standard PC arrow/home/numpad configuration and not that weird Microsoft/Logitech shit of putting tiny arrow keys in random locations, or F-lock.
