Con il comunicato stampa di seguito allegato, Intel ha reso noto che circa dodici nuovi netbook, basati sui nuovi processori
dual-core Intel Atom N550, sono disponibili ora sul mercato internazionale. In accordo al chip maker statunitense, i principali produttori di netbook che utilizzano e utilizzeranno tali cpu sono i seguenti: Acer, ASUS, Fujitsu, Lenovo, LG, Samsung, MSI e Toshiba.
Intel promette, con l'ausilio delle sue nuove cpu mobile, il miglioramento delle prestazioni negli ambiti multimediali più
