Make the Precision work stations better looking.

I like the specs on the new Precision 6300 but it looks like a
darker grey version of my Inspiron 6000. Why hasn't Dell tried to make
the thing better looking? The least they could have done is put it in a
Latitude case.

I kinda like the 6300 in comparison to the 6000.

Yes it is a little better but you think they could design something new. XPS M1330 is an awesome design and everything since has been same old same old.

Well you should throw them some ideas as to what is a better design/looking, or you'll end up with another 1730 !

LOL, true jorge. I suggested a Latitude case which I prefer over what is currently offered. I don't see anything like the M1330 for a precision.

Volvo used to have the same thinking with their safe but "boxy" vehicles but recently they have changed because they noticed that people like style along with performance.

I've got a 6300 and for what it is, I think it looks great. A little on the heavy side and not exactly the most portable of laptops though. My only gripe is the lack of a serial port. It's not like there isn't enough room on the chassis.

I agree with default.aspx! Sure that Latitude look good, but not nearly as good as the Precision does.

Certainly appreciate the M6300 refresh in terms of gpu, cpu, etc. but can you provide "some idea" when the exterior will undergo a refresh? Next 60 days... more or less?

It must be about time that they refreshed the outer case - Im loving the new system specs but the case just looks so dated now.... Any idea on timescales...?
