The Ultrabook\u00a0is designed to compete with the ever-growing demand for a smaller and faster computing devices. Competing against smartphones and tablets, these .8 inch thick laptops were defiantly built with portability in mind. That is not all that was improved on, the battery life of the Ultrabook\u00a0is designed to last significantly longer than normal laptops. \u00a0The Ultrabook isn\u2019t just a name for a laptop, it is a new class of laptop.<\/p>\n

The Difference<\/h3>\n

While most portable computers are deemed laptops, only a select few earn the right to be called Ultrabook. What sets these portable systems apart from the rest? It is the high standards to which they are held. In order to be named an Ultrabook\u00a0the system must have a battery life that can play 6 hours of HD video and 9 hours of windows 8 idle time at minimum.\u00a0\u00a0It must have Intel Anti Theft and Intel Identity Protection Technology. They awake from hibernation quickly,\u00a0 in as fast a 3 seconds or less. All Ultrabooks have\u00a0USB 3.0<\/a>\u00a0and SSD (Solid \u00a0State Drive). The SSD makes the system access stored music, movies, and other data with great speed. Every newer Ultrabook\u00a0comes with an Intel Core i5\u00a0processor at minimum. These processors are extremely fast and can multitask like people breathe. They also are touch screen and seem really like tablets without giving up the laptop feel. These are just a few of the specifications that govern the Ultrabooks.<\/p>\n

Why?<\/h3>\n

These high-powered systems are meant to be the cream of the crop in today\u2019s portable systems. They have very quick processors that can handle almost anything you put them through. \u00a0These laptops are very responsive and very slim to perfectly suit today\u2019s business professional. So if you are in the market for a new laptop and want the most out of your investment, you can\u2019t go wrong with an Ultrabook.<\/p>\n

Who?<\/h3>\n

The people who would most benefit from an Ultrabook are those that travel frequently and have a need for a powerful machine to complete their tasks. This includes professionals such as software developers, photographers, engineers, and music producers.\u00a0 Some earlier models cost around 650 dollars but newer models are around 1300 dollars. So these systems are pricey but in the computer world you really get what you pay for. These systems are worth every penny with their many features and system performance.<\/p>\n
