CeBIT 2007 - Intel 940G doing something sexy

Saturday 17th March 2007, 06:39:00 PM, written by Rys

While Intel 940G is a deeply unsexy IGP, it still has its uses in sexy little devices. Tucked away in Samsung's Q1 Ultra ultra-mobile PC, it pushes the device's 1024x600 pixels and happily runs Vista Aero.

The Q1 Ultra has a full QWERTY keyboard, an upgrade from the Q1, and with an ultra-mobile Intel ULV processor at 800MHz, 1GiB of system memory and a 60GB HDD.

The whole thing weighs significantly less than 1000g, and mobile comms support runs to UMTS, HSDPA, 802.11b/g and Bluetooth. A quick fiddle under the noses of Samsung's all-white and very very scary press staff here at CeBIT had the Beyond3D website up and running under Vista IE7. I want one.
