When you think of processors, Intel is the first name that comes to mind. That is because Intel has a long history of manufacturing industry leading processors for computing. Their journey began in 1971 when they created the Intel 4004* 4 bit processor which was one of the first commercially available microprocessor.

As computers become a commodity, there’s a full range of fresh use cases that have started emerging. One of the most interesting devices to have emerged lately is the Intel® compute stick. Clarke’s law*** suggests that any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. Just like the original flash drives or pen drives appeared to be a miraculous alternative to CDs, the compute stick too appears to be the harbinger of a computing revolution.

We live in an era where it is almost impossible to live without computers. While many are satisfied using just their smartphones, the majority still depend on a desktop computer or laptop to get their work done. A smartphone simply does not have the required productivity levels or processing power of a full-fledged PC. However, people are often forced to use their smartphones or tablets just because they do not wish to lug around a desktop rig or a laptop. What if you were able to have a PC that fits right into your pocket? What if you could have all your files and settings just the way you like? The Intel® compute stick does just that.

“The only thing constant is change” – Heraclitus. This is a quote that was true in the past, is true now and will remain true in the future. As true as that is, people in general are opposed to change at first even if that change is for the better. 2 in 1s is a change that is slowly but surely transforming the workflow across various industries and while people did hesitate at first, they are now taking a liking to it and are embracing its potential. Let’s take a look at a few industries where 2 in 1s have changed the workflow and how.

Laptops and 2-in-1s are not so different, especially when the latter is meant to act like a laptop when necessary, but this “when necessary” is the part that makes 2in1s subtly different and puts them in an evolutionary perspective. Both serve the same purpose – on the go computing, but how do they differ and which one should you go for? Let’s find out. Continue reading “2 in 1s vs Laptops: Which one should you get?”
A modern lifestyle entails the use of a range of devices. From laptops to tablets to e-readers, technology is all pervasive and is an integral part of all forms of content consumption and creation that goes on today. Given the unified focus on simplification of technology and enabling access, it is surprising how often we forget that having a disjointed experience across hardware is perhaps one of the biggest breakaway point. While we are still far from a perfect solution, 2-in-1 devices are leading us towards a future where a single device will be able to function as a one stop destination for all needs. With that in mind, we decided to poke around to see how we could consolidate our daily technology related and ended up with more than a few applications. Here’s our top five use cases for a 2 in 1 around the house and more. Continue reading “Top 5 use cases for a 2-in-1 laptop”
The versatility of a 2-in-1, convertible or a tablet-laptop hybrid is unmistakable. What is at first glance an additional gimmick tacked on for the heck of it requires some deeper introspection into the very usage patterns of most users to see why they’ve become all the rage.

Unless you have been living under a rock for the past couple of years, you are bound to have heard of the term 2 in 1s. But what are 2 in 1s? What exactly makes a device a 2 in 1? That’s what we will be taking a look at today.
Technology is constantly evolving and with each new breakthrough in technology, a new gadget or device is spawned. This is true especially in the past century where we had corded landlines which then evolved into mobile phones, film cameras that evolved into digital cameras, record players that evolved into mp3 players and PMPs (portable media players) that we could put in our pockets. The list goes on and on.

2-in-1s are tailor made for two different scenarios, work and play. For work, the keyboard stays put and for play, the keyboard gives way to the touch screen, but what makes the experience complete is a combination of a 2in1’s hardware and software, which, of course, is Windows. The latest iteration of Microsoft’s flagship operating system, Windows 10, adds a feature called “Continuum” which clearly, is made for 2in1s. So let’s go ahead see how it helps with the whole 2in1 experience.
