Design and Ergonomics

The Dell Precision M90 looks like a large folder, but doesn’t seem too bulky even with its impressive dimensions thanks to the use of different colors in its case. The case is made of a magnesium alloy and features Dell StrikeZone technology that protects the notebook from physical damage and other troubles. The lid is painted a light silvery color, but with somewhat darker margins. There is also an almost black insert in the front part:

The manufacturer’s logo is placed in the center of the lid:

At the back of the lid, almost in between the hinges, there is another black piece with pressed-out letters of the notebook series name.

Having such a large display, the notebook can’t do without a lock. Its light silver color is distinguishable against the black background. The lock is designed like a slider:

Below the lock, on the bottom part of the notebook, there is a block of multimedia buttons surrounded with a bevel edging and highlighted with a fashionable blue light. This multimedia block includes (from left to right):

• Mute on/off
• Volume Down
• Volume Up
• Play/Pause
• Next Track
• Previous Track
• Stop
