CES2014：Chromebook、混合PC的诞生

据CNET网站报道，老版的笔记本电脑和台式机甚至几年前便在CES上不再备受瞩目，现代的笔记本电脑更薄、更轻、运行的时间更长，而几乎所有新款Windows电脑，包括集所有功能于一身的台式机，都具有触摸屏，这正是对Windows8操作系统的实用要求。

除此之外，电脑世界充斥着各种混合型设备，这些设备具有新的外形和功能，而且能够在笔记本电脑和平板电脑之间自由切换。

过去几届CES展会见证了电脑突破性的发展，如超极本、触摸屏、Win8、混合型设备和平板电脑。2014年的CES可能缺乏新主题，不过上述趋势将会被继续加强，有望为参展者带来更好、更便宜的技术。

当然，请记住，PC厂商们在CES上发布的产品并不总会立即上市销售，原因是有些商家愿意根据学校放假来安排自己的计划。因此，惠普、戴尔等公司会在今年晚些时候宣布新产品计划时间表，这是说得通的。

2012CES上，将有更多厂商加入谷歌Chrome OS阵营，其实早期谷歌笔记本电脑的销量都还不错，不过这是由于其价格非常低，加之谷歌所做的市场推广。有用户称，使用谷歌笔记本一周就会完全改变其最初对笔记本电脑的看法。不过真正的问题来了，即Chromebook是否仅仅是netbook 2.0吗？

混合及折叠式设备

自微软2012年秋天发布Windows 8以来，在新款PC发布浪潮中，混合PC设备成为重要部分，这些意想不到的创意的到来是由于Win8“触摸友好”的特性，另外也是因为PC厂商希望借助iPad等平板电脑的成功来带动此类产品的销量。

2014年，混合型设备将拥有各种不同物理外观，有的屏幕可以拆卸，有的可以上下滑动，有的可以折叠，有的可以弯曲。

Steambox和客厅电脑

在过去一年里，台式电脑的重大消息一直围绕苹果高端Macbook Pro，其吸引力胜过市面上的任何台式电脑。台式电脑还存在一个新领域可以发展，这个新领域就是客厅领域。虽然客厅娱乐领域如新款Xbox One和PlayStation 4已推出，但仍存在大量空间以供新款PC来填补。

游戏商Valve已向300名测试者送出了Steambox早期原型，分析师预计该公司可能会在CES上正式展出该设备。

本届CES上，一些PC厂商可能推出类似Steambox的硬件，这可能是PC产业向客厅领域渗透的开端。
