Vizio announced a complete line of notebooks/laptops and an all-in-one PC that appears to be taking on the design trends of Apple Computer directly. Built with a stylish aluminum frame design, the new PCs look to be incredibly stunning visually and are extremely light and thin in all dimensions. The new Windows 7-based PCs are going to launch in spring 2012 and includes 2 All-in-One computers, 2 thin + light notebooks and one netbook. The notebooks in particular look to be directly aimed at Apple's MacBook Pro line and the smaller Ultrabook is reminiscent of the MacBook Air. This may not be enough to drive sales away from Apple, but it's great to see other companies taking such a design-focus on their products.
Vizio claims to be identifying and addressing a fundamental shift in consumer buying habits and behavior. Namely, their desire to be more portable and a growing trend to stream media from online sources and perform double-duty as both work and play machines. As Vizio has been seeking to unite the PC world with its expansive line of TVs, this isn't exactly a stretch - though it was surprising to see them dive into PCs personally and not via some sort of more open manufacturing agreement with another provider. Check out the new PCs up close in this video:
