According to the statements of Intel head Paul Otellini, it is clear that the CPU giant do fear the new PC era , statistics suggest that traditional computers are sold less and less, and the average price of their realization is growing. Otellini declares that blurred boundaries between form factors, are taken into new service interfaces, and the whole industry is experiencing a radical transformation. Intel head report it is no longer necessary to choose between PC and tablet. Convertible hybrids combine features of both in one without affecting the performance level and comfort.
Overall, Otellini sees no need to make tablet better than other device - they are part of the evolutionary process. Requirements for high-speed computers new form factors do not differ from those of the PC for the last two years.
Ultrabooks also change the landscape of the market. In the U.S. last year, sales of less than an inch thick notebooks grew by 18 times. In tablet segment, according to Otellini, there is stratification by size: budget decisions will be the screen size to 7 ", and productive - about 10" or more. Tablets with screen sizes 12-13 "will be equipped with a docking station with a keyboard. With the introduction of Haswell and Broadwell (last promised in 2014) mobile solutions will become thinner and thinner.
