With AMD switching focus and Intel's Mobile Pentium III soon to be superseded by the Pentium 4, firms face difficult choices over which notebook platform to invest in next.
The chip maker will unveil an Athlon microprocessor that runs at a speed of 750MHz -- topping rival Intel's Pentium III.
Few would disagree that memory is currently a bottleneck in the PC's architecture, but there is no such consensus on what technology will solve the problem. ZDNet looks at the main contenders.
AMD just broke an important processor clock speed barrier. The company announced Monday that it is shipping a 1GHz, or 1,000MHz, Athlon processor.
The launch of the 2.4GHz processor for desktops, the chipmaker's fastest Pentium 4 to date, is part of bigger plan to push the Pentium 4 into nearly every sector in the PC market.

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.
Advanced Micro Devices on Monday released a new version of its Athlon processor, while Intel plans to speed up its Celeron chip--moves that come amid a new slump in the PC market.
We like the Toshiba Satellite L500D, it's amazing value for its price. However, we think it's worth paying the extra AU$200 for the version with the less power hungry GPU.
If you are considering a PC with a 1,000- or 850-MHz processor, chances are you want the works, and that is precisely what Compaq delivers
Advanced Micro Devices will have good news for customers next week, but bad news for investors.
