When Intel initially released the Atom D330 dual core processor, it was released for desktops and nettops, while a variant was used in netbooks. Now however, Intel have officially released the first dual core processor design specifically for netbooks.
From next month onwards, we should see the N550 1.5GHz processor feature in netbooks released after then. The N550 will feature a similar graphic chipset to the N455, single core processor. It will also feature an updated memory controller, which supports DDR3 memory. We will also see the processor have a similar number of physical cores, as the Core i3s, i5s and i7s do.
