Ultrabook hybrid screen slide from Intel

Intel seems to have found the perfect way to combine the flexibility features of a tabletwith a laptop, creating a hybrid ultrabook, whose screen slides over the keyboard in one go, making the whole assembly a little thick tablet.

Prototype named Letexo is undoubtedly an interesting exercise design, made ​​from the highest quality and latest technology of the moment. Aided by a special Windows 8thought if such a configuration, the new hybrid Ultrabook is more likely to success,providing a natural way to switch between a tablet and the format of a laptop equipped with keyboard, touchpad and screen touch.

Although the technical details were not made ​​public until now, we can say with certainty that Letexo new platform is based on Intel Ivy Bridge, more powerful and more efficient in terms of energy consumption than old Sandy Bridge platform, which is based firstgeneration of Ultrabook. Presentation of the first images are and that Letexo offers at least two USB connectors, along with an HDMI port.
