Intel has announced, at Computex 2010, a new range of Atom processors codenamed Oak Trail that could bring on a new generation of laptops which will make the Mac Book Air look positively obese.
The new range of laptops and tablets, known as "Oak Trail", will come to market in early 2011 and be the based on the Moorestown architecture which was only launched back at the beginning of last month and is specifically targeted smartphones.

Oak Trail Devices built around the Lincroft" System-on-Chip will support HDMI, full 1080p content as well as promises of much longer battery life.
