Intel touch display Ultrabook reference design: hands-on

Intel touch display Ultrabook reference design: hands-on

[Cebit 2012] Intel is showing a touch-enabled Ultrabook reference design at Cebit, and the overall goal of this exercise is to show what this looks and feels like, and to provide developers with something that they can work on until Windows 8 launches later this year. This is of great importance for both Microsoft and Intel as Windows 8 and its native touch user interface could be an inflexion point for the Intel-based mobile market. As for the reference design itself, its profile looks like a 2012 Samsung Series 9 computer, but it comes unbranded, so it's hard to know for sure who Intel has partnered with on this project.
