AMD unveils 'Business Class' desktop computers
Advanced Micro Devices has unveiled its first computer brand, aimed at small and medium-sized businesses, with design and sales help from its major chip customers such as Dell.
AMD Business Class desktop personal computers will be followed by notebook PCs in the second half of this year.
AMD customers who plan to sell the computers include Acer, Dell, Fujitsu-Siemens, Hewlett-Packard and Lenovo, said Hal Speed, a marketing architect for AMD based in Austin. "It's not like retail," he said. "People are buying this for work and we really tried to identify the nuggets (of technology for business desktop PCs) that weren't being looked at."
