Intel Perhaps Required to Correct its Standard Setting for PC-use Atom processors


Intel may perhaps be required to correct its Standard Setting for PC-use Atom processors as the top-2 netbook retailers.  Asustek Computer and Acer together aim to discontinue manufacturing interrelated merchandise, according to resources from notebook players.

Asustek is by now place to close down its Eee PC product line and legitimately phase-out from the IT production after fully absorbing several outstanding inventories. Like for Acer, so far, the business has not yet ended any strategy to open new netbook ventures, signifying that the seller may as well plan to step-out of the market.

Even though Atom series processors will at rest be accepted by handset and embedded products, the sources consider the two product lines are implausible to be capable to load the break formed by the lacking netbook products in short period due to pathetic shipments.

Asustek CEO Jerry Shen in recent times established that the company will discontinue production of Eee PC netbooks by means of Atom-based processors such as the N2600 due to collision from tablet PCs and notebooks, as well as a spiky drop in demand in promising markets. Asustek plans to have its Transformer tablet PCs fill the 10-inch mobile device market; substituting its netbook product line.

Micro-Star International (MSI), which is buying a small volume of Atom N2800-based stuff, also has no plans to maintain shipping interrelated products.

Though netbook sellers were at first positive concerning demand from Southeast Asia, Latin America and Middle East regions, as tablet PCs are increasing rapidly and lots of government procurement orders have twisted to tablet PC products as a substitute, order for 10-inch netbooks has go down rapidly, accelerating the segment's way out from the IT market.
