According to the ISH
iSuppli, builders and depth research firm should make efforts to reach
ultraportables offer consumers less than 200 dollars.
Will it be possible to design an ultra-thin laptop less than 200$? For analysts to research firm IHS iSuppli, the answer is yes. Imagine such a possibility may seem foolish given the current prices of some ultrabooks and other ultrathin laptops that rarely start below 600$ and sometimes reach 1,000$. However IHS recalls how netbooks have seen their prices decline gradually to be below the 200$ mark at the height of their success a few years ago. Above all, the analyst firm based his speech on a study of the costs of machine design, which confirms that the threshold of 200$ could be achieved by a portable entry-level PC.

Arrive at a sale price would be as low as possible for industrial PC are used to working on the basis of very small margin. Such a possibility has also been raised by Paul Otellini, Intel's CEO, who said in April that ultraportables touch shipping Intel entry level based on the Atom processor technology could be available by the end of the year.
Intel has a good part of the solution in the hands
However, Intel is a key element of the production line PC that could allow the introduction of ultrathin laptops less than 200$. The cost of its products (CPU and motherboard) accounts for 33% of the total value of the items needed to design a PC. If he decided to lower its prices, computer makers could improve their margins and thus be in a position to lower their prices.
O how other major players in the pricing of PC, PC makers will also find a way to lower prices ultraportables around the threshold of 200$. For this, they will certainly sacrifice their unit margins in exchange for an increase in sales volumes.
One thing is certain, in a market where the competition is so tough, it is sufficient that only one manufacturer is the recipe for the others to follow.
