A new model of personal computers will have great impact on hi-tech hardware.
Based on Apple's MacBook Air concept, the cheaper "ultrabooks" that began reaching the market in October weigh just 1.3kg and the thickness is 15mm to 20mm.
They use Intel microprocessors to run faster than other light PCs and their batteries last longer since traditional battery could only sustain less than five hours.
