Intel is launching the biggest makeover of the Atom processor since the seminal chip debuted in the spring of 2008, and consumers can expect a crush of new netbooks to follow.
Intel's latest N450 processor and NM10 Express chipset--technology that had been previously referred to as "Pine Trail" - will be used in a new raft of netbooks that will debut at the Consumer Electronics Show in January. Hewlett-Packard, Acer, Dell, Asus, Toshiba, Lenovo and others are expected to either announce new systems before the show or exhibit new models there.
Intel said there will be more than 80 new netbook designs--typically priced around $350--on the way, with systems coming available by January 4.
