Dell prepares hybrid laptops that feature both an ARM processor-based sub-system and Intel’s traditional main notebook platform, according to rumors.


The reports say the ARM low-voltage sub-CPU, combined with Linux OS, will enable a “multi-day battery life” in Intel & Windows-powered Dell’s Latitude E4200 and E4300 business ultraportables.


“This means running Linux in ‘instant-on’ mode for super quick access to e-mail, calendar, attachments, contacts and even the Interwibble on a super low-power ARM processor, whilst the system’s main operating system would run separately on an Intel Core2 Duo processor,” the Inquirer explains.


Availability and pricing are currently unknown.
