AMD (Advanced Micro Devices) today launches its next-generation mobile processor - the AMD Turion Ultra notebook platform.
AMD state that the new processor is the first real opportunity to capitalize on their US$5.4 billion acquisition of graphics company ATI in July 2006.
A successful launch of the new AMD platform is seen by some as a turning point for AMD to take advantage of ATI’s graphics expertise and Intel’s failure to deliver its new laptop system.
