Until now, we have been used to seeing well designed computers only from Apple Inc. Intel engineers and designers from Ziba Design came together to build the world’s thinnest and most fashionable laptop; an machine that is fully loaded with the latest technology but designed to look more like a fashion accessory than a computer. This incredible laptop nicknamed the Intel mobile Metro computer is only 0.7 inches thin and weighs no more than 2.25 lbs.
On the outside, from its no-rim screen to its groovy keyboard, the notebook is gloriously smooth and streamlined. A special accessory-a leather-like folder that wraps around the laptop and attaches with magnets-serves as a wireless charger and an external screen that lets users check e-mail without opening the computer. Add a strap, and the whole thing turns into a bag that can be adorned with a favorite picture on the screen.
BusinessWeek had an exclusive look at the new laptop which has great profit margins and it is expected to help Intel edge the stiff competition that it faces from rival chipmaker AMD.
