Holiday season will see big changes in laptops
For example, the upcoming Pine Trail version of the Atom chip will be smaller, more efficient, and sport onboard graphics. That means there’s room for more RAM or for reconfiguring the PCBs to allow for a sleeker body design. And new Windows 7 features like the multi-touch APIs will make touchscreens more viable features.
So if you’re thinking of upgrading, just hold off. You’ll be able to get a monster holiday deal on a cool new laptop instead of paying top dollar for the last generation.
