Google touch screen ‘Pixel’ laptop

Google has introduced a touchscreen laptop in a bid to take on Apple in the luxury laptop market.The £1049 (£1299) Chrome book Pixel has built a a much higher resolution display that makes individual pixels invisible to the naked eye.
Although Apple has an equivalent display, Google says the addition of touch, and 1TB of free space on an on-line hard disk drive, make its machine better to ‘power’ users.We desired to rethink every little thing possible in a laptop,’ said Sundar Pichai of Google, who disclosed the device at an exclusive event run in Silicon Valley and London..’The screen is the greatest resolution display screen ever shipped on a laptop, and we don’t want consumers to deal with pixels - so consumers will never find them.’People want to reach out and touch - so we built-in full touch.


The laptop, the first Google has made and built by itself, will be built in Taiwan.It will compete directly with Apple.’Apple has been at this a long time, and has built something amazing,’ Pichai stated of Apple’s products.’But if If you reside in the cloud this is the greatest experience you can have.’The machine uses Google’s Chrome OS, which is reliant on the firm’s web browser.


Although it does have a hard disk drive like a traditional laptop computer, Google also provides buyers a 1TB disc drive on on it’s ‘cloud’ service, which is free for 3 years - although the firm said it didn't know how much consumers would have to pay to keep this after three years.


‘We believe that’s about the lifespan of the Pixel,’ said Mr Pichai.The gadget will compete with Microsoft’s recent Surface tablet, that has a clip-on keyboard to turn it into a ‘real’ laptop.A Pro version capable of running the firm’s newest Windows 8 software, and costing $999 in the US, was recently introduced, but the firm has Rejected to reveal revenues information or say whenever it could become available in other countries. - DailyMail
