Still want a laptop? That is so yesterday. Get ready for the next stage in the personal computer revolution: It’s the ultra-thin, dirt-cheap netbook.
According to a New York Times report last week, personal computers are about to go through their biggest change since the rise of the laptop.
By the end of the year, consumers are likely to see laptops the size of thin paperback books that can run all day on a single charge and are equipped with touch screens or slide-out keyboards.
The netbook is a kind of portable computer with leaner functions for online surfing and basic computing activities, for example, word processing. To cut the cost and weight, they usually have a low-powered processor, small screen, narrow key board, and no optical disk drive.
At present, some of these devices feel more like a toy than a full-feature computer. That’s because most of the netbooks sold today run on an Intel chip called Atom. This is a lower-power version of the company’s standard laptop chip. So they have trouble running demanding software like games and photo-editing programs. But this year, a group of companies who make cheap, power-saving chips used in cell phones are applying that expertise to PCs. That means they will break Atom’s netbook dominance and reduce the size while letting it run more complicated programs.
The big winner in the rise of netbooks will be the consumers. AT&T announced last week that customers in Atlanta, Georgia, US, could get netbook for just $ 50 if they signed up for an Internet service plan. This trend will soon spread to Asia, according to industry experts.
It seems that computers of the new kind are considered______.
选项
A、like toys that children play with
B、mainly for word processing purpose
C、to be as thin as real notebooks
D、to be all laptops that people can carry along
答案
A
解析
细节理解题。由第四段第一句“At present,some of these devices feel more like a toy than a full—feature computer.”可知,现今新型的上网本更像是儿童玩具,而不是功能齐全的电脑。因此选A项。
