THERE MAY BE some debate about whether netbooks are an important growth opportunity for chipmakers, or if they’re taking a significant bite out of laptop sales, but the fact is that Intel has its Atom processor up and running, while AMD has yet to come up with a netbook chip of its own.
The fact AMD doesn’t have a netbook processor in the pipeline could be problematic for the firm. Its share of the global notebook market might well be in for a drop from the current 12-13 per cent to below 10 per cent share in 2009.
