Hello blogger community,
One of the biggest things Intel will be pushing this year is the “Thin Is in” message. For of you who may not be aware; “Thin is In” is all about the arrival of Intel’s new ultra thin and ultra power efficient CPUs.
With these new CPUs we hope to bring sexy, thin, ultra power efficient notebooks to the mainstream. Where before they occupied the £1k upwards price bracket, we will probably see Mac Book Air like notebooks arriving for around the £499 mark!
So I have a simple question which I hope will spark off some discussion… is thin really in?? Are ultra light, ultra power efficient and ultra thin notebooks the next big thing since the mighty intel Atom CPU?
We have a number of major players arriving. Most notably the Acer Timeline series who look to be first of the mark (see http://www.acer.co.uk/timeline/) and Asus with their U Series (see http://channel.hexus.net/content/item.php?item=18611)
There is no doubt they look good, and I am sure it’s a matter of time until the other big computer manufacturers arrive with versions of their own – but – are they the ones you’re waiting for – or are there other brands that you think are worth waiting for? Please do share your thoughts as I think this going to be one the hotly watched segments this year.
