英特尔推超级本豪赌轻薄笔记本市场

    而且非常不幸的是，在上周的投资者大会上，英特尔在移动领域根本没有拿得出手的成绩单。移动通信部门的联席掌门人麦克•贝尔和赫尔曼•厄尔向大家通报了英特尔合作伙伴的最新消息。虽然有摩托罗拉（Motorola）和联想（Lenovo）等设备制造商助阵，但迄今为止，市面上的英特尔手机仍寥寥无几。英特尔已在移动领域耗费巨资。共有大约1,200名工程师在对英特尔架构的谷歌（Google）Android系统进行性能优化。不过，现在就讨论英特尔能立足移动市场还为时尚早。

    目前，英特尔的重心显然放在了超级本上，尽管该公司曾表示它决心在智能手机市场也要成为领导者。那么，这一切意味着什么？这意味着看到英特尔创意总监——嘻哈乐团“黑眼豆豆”主唱will.i.am的机会将大大增多，或许看到的超级本也将多得多。

    Unfortunately Intel had little to share on the mobile front at last week's investor meeting. Mike Bell and Hermann Eul, who now jointly lead the company's mobile communications group, gave an update on the recent partnerships Intel has announced, including with device makers like Motorola and Lenovo. But to date, very few Intel-based phones have actually launched. The company has put a lot of resources on its mobile efforts. It has about 1,200 engineers dedicated to optimizing the Google (GOOG) Android mobile operating system for Intel architecture. But it's far from proving it can be a real player in mobile.

    For now, it's clear Intel is putting its focus on Ultrabooks, though it has said it is determined to be a leader in smartphones as well. So what does that mean? Get ready to see a whole lot more will.i.am. And, maybe, many more Ultrabooks.
