Intel, did you develop a high-performance, low-cost ultra-thin notebook computer?



Intel has announced that it may announce a processor that will realize a new high-performance, low-priced ultra-thin laptop computer within the year.

This means that an inexpensive ultra-thin notebook computer equipped with a processor adopting a high-performance Core architecture may come out rather than an Atom processor mounted on a low price laptop computer called "Netbook".

Details are as follows.

According to this article, Intel is developing a processor for ultra-thin laptop computer which realized new low price.

This processor adopts the Core architecture, it is planned to be a space saving model of 22 mm × 22 mm, and it becomes possible to realize ultra-thin laptop computer of 1 inch (about 2.54 cm) or less.

Also, since the processor for the conventional thin type notebook computer was expensive, it was adopted as a model such as VAIO type T which exceeds 2000 dollars (about 178,000 yen), but the newly developed processorPlatform that realizes low-priced thin notebook personal computer of 700 to 900 dollars (about 62,400 yen to about 80,000 yen) developed by AMDIt seems to be inexpensive comparable to.
