@ chingy

Given that AMD Athlon Neo will consume anywhere from 8 – 15 Watts (compared to Intel Atom which only consumes 4 Watts) and AMD’s chipset will only consumes around 8 Watts (compared to Intel’s chipset which consumes more than 20 Watts), we can expect the battery life to be similar, if not barely different, from an Intel Atom based netbook.

@Jomark Osabel

According to the benchmark released by AMD, Athlon Neo paired with Radeon (forgot the model, HD 3200 I think)is about 50-75% faster than an Atom paired with Intel IGP.

Of course, there is a catch, AMD has to sacrifice battery life in favor of the added performance.

But we still have to for 3rd party benchmarks to confirm the claimed performance gap before we decide if the trade-off was worth it. =)

kinda off topic… but my annoying neighbor back home in San Jose, CA works for AMD.. and so because of him, i can’t bring myself to buy anything with AMD in it haha.. not to mention the fact that many of my friends work for intel
