Intel in May announced plans to recharge the PC market with a brand new laptop category called ultrabooks featuring longer battery life, ultrathin profiles of 0.8 inches or smaller and priced at less than $1000. The new ultraportable laptops are supposed to merge the performance capabilities of laptops with "tablet-like features such as instant-on functionality," Intel said. The first wave of ultrabooks are due out this fall, with more advanced devices coming in 2012 and 2013.

About six months before Intel announced the ultrabook category, Apple was making waves with its overhauled MacBook Air. The new Apple laptop line is similar to what Intel wants to see in ultrabooks such as solid-state hard drives, instant-on functionality, full-size keyboards, and at least one model priced below $1000. The latest MacBook Air refresh in July featured Sandy Bridge Core i5 and i7 processors, more RAM (except the base model), and Thunderbolt I/O ports.
