Dell's highly acclaimed and highly mysterious Adamo might not be entering mass production until the second half of 2009. This isn't the first Adamo delay we've seen, and our fingers are crossed that it will be the last.
There is still little factual information about the Adamo (even after a CES demonstration), aside from the fact that it looks pretty darned cool, but there is a strong hope that these delays will be compensated by some pretty impressive internals. Can't be too sure though, and it looks like we're going to have to wait a while to find out.

Not a 100%, but i think it can handle halo 2. If you plan to play anything, newer than halo 2 your system probably wont be up to spec. and graphics cards aren't exactly something you can just switch out in most laptops. If I help you, great

Well I'm thinking about a new laptop but i don't know anything about computers. So, my question is will this laptop run halo 2 vista?

Today Dell officially confirmed that they will be releasing a new ultrathin laptop called the Adamo. The Adamo is a sleek laptop with an aluminum chassis, with a strikingly similar appearance the HP Voodoo Envy 133. Dell has not revealed any final specifications, and we are unable to discuss what we saw in the current version, but we did get a chance to handle and use the current Adamo prototype.
