Dell is attempting to compare their Latitude E4200 laptop (catchy name) against Apple’s MacBook Air (Dell incorrectly titles it “Macbook”).

Dell’s video begins with a familiar manilla envelope, but, boy is this one stuffed with thickness!

Nowhere in the video does Dell mention that their thicker laptop is OS-limited whereas Apple’s MacBook Air – and all Macs for that matter – are OS-unlimited. Of course, it’s not surprising that Dell doesn’t want to mention that only OS-unlimited Apple Macs are capable of running all major operating systems and offer users the ability to run the world’s largest software library.
