Technology get stronger and better each day, in my previous article i talked about the World’s Lightest 13-inch Convertible Laptop (Lenovo), now comes another one from intel.
Intel unveiled the world's smallest Windows PC, a tiny thumb-drive-
sized device that converts any television or monitor into a functional
computer.
Similar to the Google ( GOOGL, Tech30 ) Chromecast or Amazon (AMZN, Tech30)
Fire Stick, the Intel Compute Stick can be plugged into an HDMI port. Though
Intel ( INTC, Tech30 ) says the Compute Stick can be used for streaming video, it
can also do more than that.
The four-inch Compute Stick comes installed with Windows 8.1, 2 GB of RAM
and 32 GB of storage. It connects to the Internet via Wi-Fi, and it has a
microSD slot for additional storage if you need it.
"It's everything you love about your desktop computer in a device that fits in
the palm of your hand," says Intel.
Well ... your desktop computer probably has a keyboard, a mouse, a lot more
storage and RAM, and a much faster processor. But point taken, Intel: It's a
full-fledged computer that's the size of a pack of gum. That's pretty neat.
Intel suggests that the Compute Stick be used for "light productivity, social
networking, Web browsing, and streaming media or games." It also said small
businesses might use it as an inexpensive computing solution.
The Intel Compute Stick will cost $149 and will go on sale later this year. A
version that runs Linux will sell for $89.
With Device, there is going to be a great competition with smartphones and i pray mobile phone companies should come out with a counter as soon as possible because their future is already as stake.
Few days ago LG unveil their stylish curve shape smartphone LG G Flex 2 which have sink into the heart of every electronics gadget lovers across the globe.
I strongly believe there is no limit to what Technology could achieve as Great minds are always working round the clock.
