As a keen blogger, I use my laptop predominantly for writing, viciously hammering at the keys to the point where laptop repair is needed. However, typing and writing words on the screen is the easiest and most comfortable way of communicating with the world.

This past week, Intel (computer chip manufacturing giant) announced collaboration with Nuance Communications (computer software giant) to bring voice control to ultrabooks. Sony are also hot on this technology and many sony laptop repair companies who are up to date on the latest laptop news will tell you this will soon be the future. Microsoft are also another company laptop repair companies say it is worth keeping an eye on. This technology is based on the fact that we have relationships with our technology, so why not be able to talk to it? Basically you will be able to tell your new computer what to do and it will do it, and the more you use the computer, the better it will learn your language and accent.

While this technology is very clever, and at the moment it is reserved for ultrabooks, how long before it becomes even more advanced and worse, reaches the laptop? If it does come to the laptop, would it be the end of my favourite machine? After all a keyboard would no longer be needed (granted, that may save me money on laptop repair) so we all might as-well have tablet pc’s. For those of us that like to express feeling via the written word, this would be a disaster. Having to say the words out loud just wouldn’t be the same.

Maybe this technology will never reach the laptop and maybe the majority of people would welcome it if it did. I guess time will tell.
