AMD to unveil new open platform strategy

[Modelworks]

Someone please go to AMD/ Intel/ Nvidia and tell them to stop with the confusing naming systems.

So now do we not only have to know the difference between all the intel and nvidia/Ati gpu we now have AMD making up another one for notebooks.
This is going to go well when telling people what version of windows they need.

"Well you can use win7 ultimate with the AMD vision, but should really get the AMD vision premium"

or people asking
"Do I need the AMD vision ultimate to use win7 ultimate ?"

AMD is scheduled to announce a new open platform strategy dubbed "AMD Vision Technology" in September, along with the launch of its next-generation notebook platform (Tigris), according to sources at notebook makers.

AMD's current Better by Design strategy, which places a label with platform specifications on notebooks, will be phased out as the new strategy hits the market.

AMD's Vision Technology strategy will separate notebook products into three levels based on their processor and GPU ? AMD Vision Ultimate, AMD Vision Premium and AMD Vision ? and each notebook will receive a label indicating the given level.

AMD declined the opportunity to respond to this report saying it cannot comment on unannounced products.

AMD has the worst marketing on earth .. some things never change

AMD's current Better by Design strategy

who the hell knew their current notebook marketing designations ??


they call it "strategy" ?

Why does AMD waste money on these stupid things? If AMD delivers battery life with performance, then sure the platform will work out. If there is no performance or no battery life, no one is going to buy it.

I got a laptop with an AMD X2 and HD3200 IGP, and I still don't have a clue about their marketing BS.

Seriously, me too

my first AMD PC is a Compaq notebook with an Athlon 64 X2 at 2.0 GHz
- it has the AMD sticker [Athlon 64 X-2], Nvidia Graphics sticker [GeForce 6200 M] and "WiFi Certified" sticker along with the Compaq sticker

No idea if it is "better by design"


but it IS decent

AMD needs to quit copying marketing names.

whats gonna make you laugh even more is this..

AMD has announced a 965.

So which 965 do u you want? the one that costs 300-400 dollars? or a 1000 dollars?

Intel's hexcore gulftown has also been given the name i9 995.

Watch AMD call there istanbul 995.

im sorry but looks like a bunch of valley cheerleaders took over the naming operation in AMD, and all they can do is copy there competition.
