The emergence of new notebooks based on the platform CULV (consumer ultra-low voltage) is expected in the fourth quarter of this year. Company Intel is going to translate this platform with single-core processors to dual-core. At present, the platform includes CULV mononuclear processors Intel Core SU3xxx, SU2xxx Pentium and Celeron 7xx. In the fourth quarter, they will be replaced by Core 2 Duo SU7xxx, Pentium Dual-Core SU4xxx and SU2xxx. Family of Celeron 7xx will remain, but will be used in the lowest segment of the market.

Now available laptops to dual-core processors series Core 2 Duo SU9xxx, they will remain on sale until the "productive" thin and light notebooks, announcements which will begin in the fourth quarter. Models dual-core lower segment will provide users with a few more computing power than the netbook processor-based Atom. On the other hand, is already on sale is the device on the platform CULV with screen sizes of 11 ". The boundary between netbooks and notebooks are now very well blurred.

Perhaps, Atom, with its support Hyperthreading, it may be a better choice than single-core Celeron 7xx, although some vendors are working on laptops made based Celeron 7xx and looking more impressive than the device to the processors Atom.
