AMD takes Live platform to notebooks

Darius Chang | Jan 09, 2007

With greater pressure put on mobiles to perform as entertainment machines, multimedia-focused AMD Live platform will be moving into your notebooks soon.

Competing directly with Intel's Viiv branding, AMD Live Notebook PC is geared toward making your system perform up to party standards with a host of proprietary video- and audio-streaming software, collectively known as the AMD Entertainment Suite. Unlike Viiv, which requires three system components to conform to Intel's standards, the AMD Live platform needs just an AMD Turion 64 X2 processor, 1GB memory and Windows Vista OS with the aforementioned AMD Entertainment Suite. Vendors such as Fujitsu and MSI should be churning out AMD Live Notebook PCs later this month.
