AMD Exec: Hybrids Will Replace Tablets

AMD UK Retail Business Development Manager Andrew Muscat made a prediction that both laptops and tablet computers are destined to merge technologies into a hybrid computing solution. When you examine the dynamics of this, it makes Microsoft’s Windows 8 Metro styled operating system seem a bit more plausible. Call them what you will; Tabtops, Laplets or just plain old hybrids, there is a definite push by companies to make this the future of mobile computing.

At present hybrid devices almost exclusively run Windows 8 thanks to its ability to combine a touchscreen with a conventional notebook keyboard.
