Computex: Intel keeps the faith with PCs even as next-gen models evolve

Firstpost  

The PC is evolving from one-size-fits-all into a spectrum of screen sizes - keyboard optional, said Intel Corp’s global head of PC chips, in a trend that could rejuvenate the computing industry’s slowest growth segment. The world’s biggest chipmaker by revenue, which recently began an aggressive though belated push into tablets, is keeping faith in PCs with new models variously dubbed all-in-one, 2-in-1 and hybrid, featuring foldable or detachable keyboards. But instead of a straight switch, users are opting for all-in-one models which resemble touch-enabled TVs often equipped with keyboards and mice, Skaugen said at the world’s second-largest information and communications technology event. Richard Windsor, a tech blogger and former Nomura Securities analyst, wrote after Intel’s showing at Computex that increased diversity in the form of desktop and laptop PCs should encourage consumers to upgrade, and thereby ignite a new round of growth.
