Thursday, December 22, 2011

Following the early successes of its of 11-inch and 13-inch ultrabooks, Acer has reportedly decided to build a brand new 15-inch ultrabook that may dramatically undercut the price of Apple's rumored 15-inch MacBook Air. DigiTimes said Wednesday that Acer has already contracted Pegratron to build the new computer, and that the device could be priced as low as $699 - $300 cheaper than the entry-level 11-inch MacBook Air. The latest rumors suggest that Apple could be prepared to deliver its 15-inch MacBook Air to the market as soon as the first quarter next year and that the device is already in the early stages of production. It is unclear when Acer's new ultrabook will launch.

Dell Quits Netbooks For Ultrabooks

Dell will continue to sell its convertible Inspiron Duo, but all regular netbooks are finished

My mother bought a netbook recently, ignoring my pleading advice to instead get an iPad. Maybe she likes updating antivirus definitions, or perhaps she is looking forward to buying a new one when this one dies exactly a day outside its warranty period. One thing's for sure, though: When she buys another one, it won't be a Dell.

Dell is getting out of the race-to-the-bottom that is the netbook market, and will instead concentrate on thinner, ultrabook-ish laptops. It will still sell the Inspiron Duo, its oddball netbook with a pop-out tablet for a screen (which could also be considered as a tablet with a keyboard case).

Speaking to the Verge's Joanna Stern, Dell confirmed that it will not be making any new netbooks based on Intel's Cedar Trail Atom chip. “Thin and powerful is where it is at for us” said Dell's Marketing Director Alison Gardner.

It's no surprise. Unless you possessed tiny Elven fingers (and superhuman patience), then you probably hated your netbook. Tablets do a better job in almost every area, are more portable and have an even longer battery life. Also, ultrabooks claim the same battery life as the netbooks of old, and have full-sized keyboards. It's hard to see where netbooks fit in.
