Dell Laptops: Powered with Care by Mod Devotchkas

smoke_mirrors_dell.jpg

While the ’90s can’t yet be packaged vintage, the ’80s are fair game. This spot for the Dell XPS m1330 by Smoke & Mirrors and Mother brings us back to the stark black-and-whites, the bad music and the inaccessible pre-fembot women that so characterized that most disastrous of times for fashion.

Witness while a bunch of immaculately-dressed ’80s gamines put together an oversized engine that then slides into the frame of a Dell XPS.

If Dell insists on pursuing every throwback avenue it can (note multi-color madness here), this effort is at least a decent one.
