Intel Introduces 12 Mobile Chips From high speed to low power, Intel keeps cranking despite down market. pcworld.com ...Feeling AMD's Heat Intel's sales aren't seriously hit by other competition in the mobile segment, Spindler says. "We haven't seen a dramatic change. We see nothing else in the competitive landscape that offers the combination of performance and lower power," he says. MicroDesign's Krewell disagrees, however, suggesting AMD's Mobile Athlon 4 and Duron products have made a dent--especially in retail. Just as AMD's Athlon faces a disadvantage in name and megahertz perception against Intel's P4 on the desktop, Intel's Mobile PIII M is at a disadvantage against the Athlon 4, he says. Retail buyers look at the number four and assume it is new and better than the three, he says. His company doesn't track retail numbers, but Krewell says he thinks AMD has "gained a significant percentage of retail sales."
