Dell hybrid laptop
Dell announced hybrid laptops that feature both an ARM processor-based sub-system and Intel’s traditional main notebook platform.
Dell’s Latitude E4200 and E4300 portables are being advertised as offering, “a dedicated low-voltage sub-processor and OS that can enable multi-day battery life.”
This means running Linux in ‘instant-on’ mode for super quick access to e-mail, calendar, attachments, contacts and even the Interwibble on a super low-power ARM processor, whilst the system’s main operating system would run separately on an Intel Core2 Duo processor.
It’s unclear which ARM processor Dell is using in its Latitude E4200 and E4300, but most believe it would be similar to Texas Instruments’ OMAP2 device.
No word about pricing and availability.
