Author: AMD is readying the launch of its next-generation low-cost Ultrathin platform.
AMD is preparing the launch of its Trinity-based Ultrathin platform (which is alike Intel’s Ultrabook).
The Trinity-based Ultrathins are most likely to be launched in June, two months after Intel launches its next-generation 22nm Ivy Bridge platform. It is expected that the average price of Intel’s Ultrabooks will drop down to $799 – $999 USD, once devices with Ivy Bridge processors become available. Till that time AMD will be ready to launch its platform, and lower the overall costs for Trinity-based Ultrathin notebooks by 10% – 20 %, so as to attract leading companies like Hewlett-Packard (HP), Acer and Asus from placing orders.
