Intel borrows Ultrabook Counterattack

The future PC is "ultra-extreme"? Before the tablet appeared, did you ever imagine that the Internet, video, chat, games, and so on, could be done on a 7-inch or 10-inch "screen".　　Technology is always beyond our imagination. "From the current OEM manufacturers to show the Machine, Ultrabook (ultra-very) there will be no one can imagine the shape, in simple terms, the future of the shape of the PC will be more changes," The Intel China Region President Yang in an interview with this reporter said. A few days ago, Intel announced that it would invest $300 million in the ultra-polar plan. The first batch of ultra-extreme will be listed in the fourth quarter of this year, the price is about 5000 yuan ~7000 yuan. What is the experience of this innovative ultra-thin laptop PC with a 21-millimeter fuselage thickness? Can the traditional PC successfully "counterattack"? Wen, map/journalist quiet Intel has "a new concept" Intel "likes" to create the concept is not a two-day thing, remember 4 years ago, Intel will 5~7 inch screen size, using the Atom processor notebook computer defined as "netbook." Now, the IT world's big Brother has put forward another new concept of "Ultrabook" super extreme.　　According to Intel, this "ultra-extreme" is a lightweight PC with a fuselage thickness of not more than 21 mm, based on its processor family. "In the near future, consumers will see the traditional PC in the form of innovation", Yang said that from current Lenovo, Asus, Acer and other OEM manufacturers show the finished products, some screen can be flipped back and forth, some screen from the bottom of the machine to stretch up, and the screen and keyboard separation, and the boot time shortened in 4-5 seconds,　　Can standby for more than 12 hours.　　In the IT world, when it comes to ultra-thin portability, it's natural to think of Apple's MacBook Air, a 17-millimetre-thick laptop that still has a lot to say about it, even though PC makers have unveiled a more lightweight, portable PC that cannot shake its position.　　Intel has invested 300 million of billions of dollars in aggressive research and development to lead a PC manufacturer still using the x86 architecture +windows operating system against Apple's slim notebooks, even more from the ipad-led tablet. In fact, Intel has been "under pressure" in recent years in the face of the squeeze on the traditional PC market by handheld mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets and the "PC extinction" that pervades the industry.　　Despite all the growth in global chip and PC shipments, according to Intel's first to second quarter earnings and related survey data, the tablet's encroachment on the traditional PC market is not negligible and comes from the challenges of the ARM architecture, which has forced Intel to reduce its chip power consumption. It is understood that ultra-extreme is expected to meet with the public in the second half of this year, it will use Intel's a more energy-efficient chip, this new product will reduce energy consumption from 35 to 40 watts to only 15 watts. The first batch of the super market will haveASUS, Lenovo, Acer and other brands, the price of 5000 yuan ~7000 yuan. Three questions Super Extreme but it is not easy to develop a new series of products that can impress consumers for a long time. It is understood that the previous Intel created a screen less than 10 inches of speed netbook sales is very good, but quickly fell, because it has not been different from other netbooks features.　　Later, by ARM's PLC chip design to innovate, but never back to the dead. Some people put forward such a question, in the public view, the concept of hyper-polar is still a traditional PC, it and the relationship between the tablet, how to attract consumers to buy? In addition, from Intel and PC manufacturers described the ultra-polar size and industrial design to see ──32 Nano or 22 nm low voltage CPU, touch screen, solid-state hard disk ...　　The cost is really not low, whether the intel controlled by the price of 1000 U.S. dollars below, in the maintenance of light while the performance can meet the user experience and other issues, there are still large variables. According to Intel's "three-step strategy", the first batch of Ultrabook notebooks will be based on the Huron River Mobile platform. Launched in the first half of 2012, configuring Intel's "Ivy Bridge" first 22 NM processor will enhance the efficiency of notebook power, intelligent visual performance, and improve responsiveness and security. By 2013, the processor code-named "Haswell" was introduced to further refine the ultrabook and to achieve a complete overhaul of the notebook function through ultra-thin, faster and more secure designs.
