AMD has released a series of chips which it claims has the stability and performance required for machines aimed at business users.
Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) is preparing to fire a new engine for hot-rod PCs.
The 325 line of desktop computers for small and midsize businesses will contain Athlon chips, continuing Hewlett-Packard's backing of the AMD chip in corporate models.
Sun Microsystems could release its second blade server design, a thin system based on an Athlon processor, by year-end, a few months later than expected.
Intel is expected to announce the release of its 2 GHz P4-M on Tuesday 25 June, Australia time, and laptop manufacturers are gearing up to be the first to market.

Even with a disappointing keyboard and merely adequate software bundle, the 4100's performance makes it a good value.
AMD releases the last chip in a product family that helped resurrect the company.
The 325 line of desktop computers for small and midsize businesses will contain Athlon chips, continuing Hewlett-Packard's backing of the AMD chip in corporate models.
Advanced Micro Devices on Monday gave its Athlon 4 and Duron chips a performance boost. AMD also announced its intent to ship a 1GHz desktop Duron later this quarter.
AMD has made some progress in taking market share from Intel. It's also announced the speed ratings of its upcoming Hammer chip.
