Intel laptops

The popular chip maker is planning on releasing two new dual-core celeron processors that will be made for the notebook platform. Both will feature a 667MHz FSB, along with a 1MB of L2 cache. Both processors will probably run similarly since they differ in speed by a few hundred megahertz. The T1600 and the T1700 run at 1.66GHz and 1.83GHz, respectively. The power usage for both is fairly low, clocking in at a TDP level of just 35W. Price on both is fairly cheap as well, with the T1600 costing $80, and the T1700 running consumers around $85. Each chip is expected to be released in the first-quarter of 2009, though an exact date is not yet known.
