Intel labels Ultrabooks a “Failure”
- Recoil42 13y agoUseless editorializing fluff. Avoid wasting your time.
- iamshs 13y agoAgreed. Read it halfway before reading your comment. Lot of vitriol the author has towards PCs/Intel.
- Apocryphon 13y agoSemiaccurate is pretty much a tabloid, more than the Register is.
- wmt 13y agoUseless editorializing fluff that's been spot on the whole time about Ultrabooks being doomed thanks to Intel jacking up their price to be higher than Air's.
- ableal 13y agoAlso interesting at the site, the first few pages of an article about an AMD stab at a graphics API: http://semiaccurate.com/2013/09/30/amds-mantle-biggest-change-gaming-decade/ http://semiaccurate.com/2013/09/30/amds-mantle-biggest-chang... "AMD’s GPU14 public presentation had one big surprise at the end called Mantle [... which] is easiest to describe as a graphics API similar to OpenGL or DirectX but without the overhead."
- bitwize 13y agoUltrabooks are a rousing success. Because of them, the laptop market is dominated by off-brand MBAs, just like it was dominated by off-brand PowerBooks between 1992-2012. Since the MBA really is the Right Thing in heavy-duty mobile computing, the ultrabook is bound to continue to succeed, maybe not under that name.
