Ultrabook(TM) Signals Dawn of New Era in Mobile Computing

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Nov. 14, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Intel® Ultrabook(TM) is a new class of 'must-have,' no-compromise devices that deliver best-in-class performance and ultra-responsiveness in thin, light and sexy designs. With substantially longer battery life and a price point of under $1000, Intel expects the Ultrabook to be as transformational to mobile computing as Intel® Centrino® mobile technology was more than eight years ago.

Highlights

    --  An Ultrabook promises the following:
        --  Thin & Light: Less than 21mm thick.
        --  Fast Start-Up: Intel® Rapid Start Technology gets the Ultrabook up
            and running faster, waking almost instantly, saving time and battery
            life.
        --  Longer Battery Life: 5-8 hours of battery life, even in sleekest
            designs, that lasts much longer than traditional notebooks when not
            in use.
    --  Ultrabook devices will arrive in three phases, each adding more exciting
        features (touch, security, faster wake-on-resume, etc.) and sleeker,
        thinner designs.
    --  Intel is investing significant money and resources to create and
        accelerate the Ultrabook category, including $300 million Ultrabook Fund
        from Intel Capital that invests in companies worldwide that are
        innovating in hardware, software, battery technology, and design.

The first Ultrabook devices powered by the visibly smart Intel® Core(TM) processor family hitting the market now:

    --  ASUS ZenBook UX21 and UX31
    --  Acer Aspire S3
    --  Lenovo IdeaPad U300s
    --  Toshiba Portege Z830
