To counter the slowdown and gain market share, Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL ) recently slashed its MacBook prices by up to $200 and updated their processors, thus boosting the value for money factor. According to a recent report, ultrabook shipments are expected to grow by nearly 65% for the next 4 years. That sounds doable since the upcoming Intel Corporation (NASDAQ: INTC ) Haswell has a low TDP of 7W with 18%-20% faster graphical performance as compared to the Intel Ivy Bridge. Additionally, Haswell chips consume 20 times lower idle power consumption, which further boost the practicality of ultrabooks while still retaining the slim factor. As a matter of fact, analysts at Lazard have upgraded Intel due to the ultrabook and smartphone growth, despite the slowdown in PC sales. Going by the analyst consensus, Intel's annual EPS could grow by 11.75% for the next 5 years.
