Asus Unveils UnLimited Series of CULV Laptops.

UL is for UnLimited. Intel"s CULV chips are to usher in a new generation of ultra-thin and light notebooks, and Asus is ready to show off its offerings in the new UnLimited Series, or UL for short, of notebooks that all measure no more than 1-inch thick. The Asus UL line stretches across seven different models, some of which feature dedicated graphics with the Nvidia GeForce G210M. One neat trick for the models with the discrete GPU is that users will be able to toggle between dedicated and integrated graphics for the purpose of controlling energy consumption and graphics power. Screen sizes for the line range from 12.1-inches to 15.6-inches and weights between 3.3 lbs to 4.6 lbs. Paired with the CULV Core 2 Duo processor, these notebooks have decent capabilities in the segment. Perhaps the most impressive bullet point of all is that select models of the UL series will be able to achieve a battery life of up to 12 hours. The Asus UL notebooks should be filling retail channels shortly. Check out Asus" page for a full rundown of the configurations.

Taiwan"s notebook manufacturers expect Intel"s price reduction on dual-core Yonah processors to arrive in advance of the planned date of May 28, with the aim of stimulating the worldwide notebook PC market, despite Microsoft"s delayed launch of its next operating system (OS). Various sources from market research firms, including Lehman Brothers, have pointed out that the delayed release of Microsoft"s consumer-version of its Windows Vista OS will slow notebook demand and push back the peak buying season, the makers noted.
