Intel introduce new nettop Atom 330 CPU system


The minute I read that Intel had launched their new dual-core Atom chip, my little netbook-crazed heart skipped more than the one beat. Then I read on and, before you do the same, you should know that the Intel Atom 330 is a nettop solution and is not set to cause a craze in the release of sub-notebook computers as we saw with the Intel Centrino 2 system and full-size laptops a month or so back.
This updated Atom motherboard and CPU solution is certainly nothing to be sniffed at though. The 330 chip may have the same 1.6GHz clock speed as its predecessor, the Atom 230, but it features HyperThreading technology that, with the addition of the second core, will make for a massively enhanced performance.
