MSI S20 Slider UltraBook Coming with Ivy Bridge and Windows8 in October 2012

MSI’s innovative convertible UltraBook called S20 is apparently coming on the market this autumn. The S20 features a 11.6” touchscreen with 10-point multi-touch support.

The small and versatile wonder from the well-known mainboard manufacturer is powered by Intel’s powerful Ivy Bridge processor and reportedly only weighs about 1.2 Kg. That’s about 2.64 pounds and, at just 20 millimeters (0.65”) thick, the S20 Slider will certainly find its way in many clients’ shopping bags. Mobile enthusiasts dreaming to buy MSI’s new convertible UltraBook/Tablet should likely put aside about $800 if they live on the New Continent or €800 if they are in Europe.

The price may be a little higher than that, considering that it will ship with the bran new Microsoft Windows 8 operating system, but we think it’s worth the money. MSI’s S20 Slider also comes with 4 GB of DDR3 RAM memory, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.0, Gigabit LAN, USB 3.0, HDMI, and the obvious QWERTY-keyboard shown in the picture.
