Intel previews new superthin notebooks

so this is our concept platform or our form factor reference design called north cape and it's in a full ultrabook experience a 17 millimeter ultrabook it has a battery both underneath the keyboard as well as behind the display and the CPU here actually sits behind the display this is going to deliver an amazing 13 hours of battery life so think about the average notebook sometimes taking about four hours of battery life we're talking about delivering 13 hours of battery life as a full system but what's unique about this is we've created a one-finger detach mechanism that you can simply remove the keyboard and we've got an amazing tablet experience here 850 gram core i5 i7 capable machine at 10 millimeters it's going to deliver up to 10 hours of battery life so it has a one-handed attach mechanism and what's interesting is we've created something called smart frame so this is essentially 11.6 inch form factor but we're able to do is hit a little button here and this screen increases to a full 13-3 screen so you get a full 13-3 screen experience in 11 6 by using some things around our graphics drivers and if I if I test this here will kind of play a high-end racing game if I'm any good at it I guess I'm not but this is something where you now can get with accelerometers and all of the sensors that were typically only available in notebooks something that already on third generation core from Acer and Lenovo we showed is five times the performance of a Tegra 3 and now I was going to get even better as we launch this later this year you
