The latest iteration of Intel Core vPro processors offers wireless innovations, built in security, faster performance and improved manageability. It also believes the new processors will spawn PC design innovation, as well as widespread use of wireless displays and wireless docking, based on 60GHz communications.
"Our goal is to enable all users to simply work better by offsetting the growing challenges of today's businesses," said Tom Garrison, general manager of Intel's Business Client Platforms. "With new devices based on 5th generation Intel Core vPro processors, we aim to transform the user experience by helping them compute from virtually anywhere without the clutter and burden of wires."
The company also made claims about faster processing, enhanced battery life and the ability for OEMs to create thinner devices. Addressing the latter, Intel is expecting form factors up to three times thinner and 50% lighter than a four year old laptop.
