Looks like you won't have to wait until tomorrow to see Dell's new XPS 15z notebook. The notebook has just been made official and it's sports a 0.97-inch thin body as well as weighing 5.54 pounds. Compare that to the MacBook Pro which is 0.95-inches thin and weighs 5.6 pounds. It's pretty clear that Dell came pretty close to mimicking that notebook but failed a bit short. However, that doesn't matter at all.

The new notebook from Dell sports Core i5 / i7 CPU options, Nvidia GeForce GT 525M graphics, up to a Full HD (1,920 x 1,080) display, up to 8GB of RAM, two USB 3.0 ports, an HDMI, an optical drive, a mini DisplayPort, Ethernet, and supports Intel's WiFi 2.0 and Nvidia's 3DPlay. The notebook itself sports an aluminum / magnesium alloy body which looks fairly sturdy. The chiclet keyboard also looks like it'll be pretty fun to type on.

Tomorrow you'll be able to get your hands on this one and it'll start at $999. Of course, you'll want to spend a bit more if you want the Full HD display which I suggest you pick up!

Update: Check it out on Dell if you want to buy one! Remember, it starts at $999.

The WSJ is reporting that Dell will indeed be launching their Dell XPS 15z tomorrow, May 24th. The notebook's specs are unknown right now but it's said to be the world's thinnest 15-inch notebook to date. Hopefully it's packing a fairly powerful spec sheet as well. Integrated graphics could be in the base model of this one since it's targeted to launch at a starting price of $999. Can't wait!
