Intel's Pavilion - Notebooks Refreshed (continued)

Intel's Pavilion - Notebooks Refreshed (continued)

 While we've recently seen the super slim Samsung X360, 13.3-inch notebook, here's the 14.1-inch X460 brother that comes with an ODD drive, a more powerful full fledged Centrino 2 platform and NVIDIA's GeForce 9200M GS graphics.

 For a larger and more powerful notebook, Samsung has this smart looking office laptop, the P560-Pro. It is a 15.4-inch notebook with a matt screen and is based on the Centrino 2 platform.

 For a similar sized notebook but one that's more cost efficient (read as less feature packed and leaner specs), Dell has the new Vostro A860.

 While Panasonic has had this Toughbook CF-52 model for quite some time, it recently underwent an update internally to feature the latest Centrino 2 platform and meets the latest Energy Star 4.0 rating. The design and overall features of the model itself are very functional and well-received, so there are no updates on the overall appearance.

Intel's Gaming Hall

 As we mentioned earlier, Intel and EA had their massive gaming tournament at Hall 22 dubbed the Intel Extreme Masters.

 One of the several areas within the hall where the action took place. Notice that they used Dell's XPS gaming desktops?   For those who came to support their friends, there were other things to do to keep them occupied like racing simulation for example.

 And of course Intel used this arena for some massive Core i7 branding and experience as well.
