AMD Athlon 4 - The Palomino is Here

Mobile Duron is here too

Along with the launch of the mobile Athlon 4 is the mobile Duron. The mobile Duron is based on the Morgan core which will actually be present in desktop Durons later this year. The Morgan core is identical to the Palomino core of the Athlon 4 except it does have the smaller L2 cache (64KB) that the Duron has always had.

The mobile Athlon 4 will be found in notebooks priced at $1,800 and above while the mobile Duron will be found in high performance value notebooks priced under $1,800. You should be ware of the fact that there are some notebooks out there based on the desktop Duron processor using the Spitfire core. If you're in the market for a notebook with a Duron make certain that it uses the mobile Duron and not the regular desktop Duron.
