Tablet explosion in 2011.
Tablets are the next big form factor now that netbooks have flooded the mainstream. Apple may have the market now with the iPad, but Intel is getting ready to jump in as the chipmaker's CEO said that there will be more than 35 tablets in 2011 with Intel inside.
Intel CEO Paul Otellini said, "We have two flavors of products; one carries our PC legacy, the codename is Oak Trail. This is for the Windows environment. That's important for people who want the advantage of PC peripheral compatibility. All the printers in the world work, all the USB drivers in the world work. Any PC peripheral will work perfectly well with Oak Trail. [It is a] very solid, high-performance, low-power version of Atom."
Otellini continued. "We have an even more optimized [Atom] version called Moorestown. For people who want the most lightweight, longest battery life, thinnest machine. It doesn't carry the PC compatibility. It's got the x86 instruction set, so Internet compatibility is there, but we're not worrying about legacy support [in Windows]."
This Intel slide some of the companies along with the which operating system they'll be employing in their Intel-based tablet. We suspect that there will be tablets aplenty all over CES 2011.
I like a tablet that's
While Tegra 2 will probably beat Moorestown in more advanced graphice I am pretty sure that Moorestown will spank it in power usage.
They are a more dependant on the use type of thing. Tegra 2 will probably be better if you want more game like capabilitis but Moorestown will be better as a low poer device.
i'd take 2 tylenol tablets first.
Not necessarily remember the first core processors? way more efficient and way more powerful. I trust that Intel isn't going backwards any time soon.
Stop spamming, reported.
