Though Intel’s upcoming Silvermont-based Atom processors have little in common with the underpowered Diamondville and Silverthorne processors that arrived in 2008, the company evidently still feels that the association with netbooks is a problem and will consequently be retailing select Silvermont processors under the Celeron and Pentium brands.
According to Techspot, these rebranded processors will be featured in notebooks, convertibles, all-in-ones and desktops running both Android and Windows whilst chips destined for tablets and mobile devices will not be taking on the new branding.
