What's 3D about Dell's 3D Black Laptop Line?

3D is prominently in the name, but it doesn't seem to have any 3D features. Is there anything 3D to this guy?

Acer did the same thing a while back, it is because of the "3D" finish the lid has. They have an engraved pattern on one level, then a clear plastic coating with more transparent patterns at higher levels. It looks neat, actually, but misleading if you do not know what they are talking about.

Thanks for the confirmation- I figured it had to be something misleading like that. It's even in the model number!
