Intel to start shipping dual-core Celeron M CPUs in small volumes in Q4
Reinforcing its lineup of entry-level 64-bit dual-core processors, Intel plans to start small-volume shipments of two 65nm Celeron M CPUs, the Celeron M 520 and the Celeron M 530, in the fourth quarter of this year, with mass shipments scheduled for the following quarter, according to sources at Taiwan notebook makers.
With the early appearance of these processors, Intel aims to hinder the growing popularity of low-cost 64-bit Mobile AMD Sempron CPUs, the sources noted.
