This article comes to help you easily find a laptop or all-in-one PC with Intel Wireless Display 2.0. First, look for this sticker on the laptop or all-in-one PC. Or, you can use this chart, which lists system requirements. Content Streaming vs. Display Streaming There are two kinds of wireless streaming: content streaming and display streaming. Content streaming works when files are stored locally and then streamed to another device. This type of streaming works with Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) Certified products, Windows Media Server, or AppleTV.

What's Behind the Products Adopt from blogs.intel.com When your computing device – be it a smartphone, tablet, or Ultrabook – just ‘works,’ you never have to think about where it came from or how it works. It just does. It’s your window to the world. It’s your connection to your friends and family. It’s how you get your work done. It’s how you shop. It’s how you play. It’s that one thing in your life that you would likely never be willing to give up. And unless you are an energy drink guzzling, over-clocking gaming fanatic; you certainly may not be doing much thinking about where the components like the microprocessor inside your computing device came from. But you might want to take just a minute or two to reflect on what goes into the manufacturing of that microprocessor you could never do without. Here at Intel we talk about our transistors a lot. We have an army of PhDs working on how to make them more powerful and more energy-efficient every couple of years. But once they’ve d...

Will New Ultrabooks, Tablets, Touch, Convertibles and Tablets Replace eReaders 2011 could be called the year of the tablet. With more than 60 million devices shipped, and many new flavors—such as the Amazon Kindle Fire*—available, slate tablets have certainly hit the mainstream. Does this surge in popularity signal the demise of eReaders? ABI Research predicts that nearly three quarters of total "slate" shipments from 2011 through 2013 will be tablets, compared to about one quarter eReaders. Even so, the company expects both devices to coexist in the future. One reason for this might be that the 2 devices meet very different audience needs. eReaders feature low-power displays better suited for the reading experience. On the other hand, tablets deliver a media and Web (and eReading) experience similar to that experienced on a PC or smartphone. Both devices will see price drops and battery life increases over the next few years. However, if a hybrid display—incorporating both L...
