Intel has released the Celeron B815 dual-core processor for inexpensive laptops. With its clock speed of 1.6GHz it’s only a slight upgrade from the widely-used 1.5GHz B800.
The CPU is a 32nm “Sandy Bridge” part with integrated Intel HD Graphics, 2MB of L2 cache, 64-bit support, and a power consumption of 35W.
This is the ASUS Eee PC R051BX 10.1" Netbook.
Asus has quietly released the Asus Eee PC R051BX, a budget 10.1″ netbook with an AMD processor and HDMI output.
The R051BX has the first generation AMD Fusion C-series C-50 1GHz dual-core processing unit with integrated Radeon graphics and full HD video decoder. The downsides of this laptop are RAM and battery. The memory size is 1GB and it’s solidered on the motherboard, so RAM on this netbook is not upgradeable. The battery is a 3-cell unit, without 6-cell option. The R051BX has only two USB ports, a webcam, and media card reader, besides HDMI.
