AMD steps into the Netbook arena in the Gateway LT3100
The Gateway LT3100 is now official. It packs a 11.6 inch screen, and more importantly, an AMD Athlon 64 L110 processor running at 1.2ghz. This netbook application is a first for AMD, who previosly has shunned netbooks.
In addition to the AMD processor, the Gateway netbook features an integrated ATI Radeon X1270 graphics chip with WXGA resolution. Like most netbooks, it can handle up to 2GB RAM and 250GB HDD, card reader, 802.11b/g, webcam, three USB 2.0 port, and a 6-cell Li-ion battery. It’s due to ship with Windows Vista basic, but we’re sure you can swap that out for XP or your OS of choice. Available in NightSky Black and Cherry Red, it should be out soon-ish with prices starting at $400.
