Looks to me like the N450 has no reason to be faster. AnandTech has a separate D510 article, but D510 isn't a netbook. In short, to be "opposite" of some other site, they actually have to compare the same sort of hardware. They would need to show other netbooks with Windows 7 Starter, and they don't have that here. Don't trust PCMark05, and there aren't any meaningful points of comparison for Vantage. Which results in this article are wrong? PCMark is all over the map, which as they point out is pretty much par for the course. Three, you're trusting THG, a site known to have sold out on too many occasions to even begin to count, just like HardOCP. Two, they don't have results for old Atom N280 and new Atom N450. See the problem? One, they're testing D510, not a netbook. Unless I'm mistaken, the only Pine Trail article is this one:

The only significant difference between GMA 9 appears to be support for OpenGL 1.5 with the 3000 series parts, plus slightly higher clocks.

That makes the 3150 a DX9 part with SM3 provided via software rather than being built into the hardware. The new part is dubbed GMA 3150, which is similar to the GMA 3100.

The integrated graphics are updated from the old GMA 950, although the upgrade isn't particularly noteworthy. The result as you might imagine is a significant decrease in power requirements, so if nothing else Pineview should improve battery life on netbooks. Where previously Atom had to get by with outdated chipsets manufactured using a relatively archaic 90nm process technology, now the entire package is manufactured using Intel's latest and greatest high-K 45nm technology. The more interesting aspect of Pineview is that the GPU and memory controller are now integrated into the CPU package. At the same clock speeds, Pineview should be about 10% faster than the previous Diamondville processors, give or take. Today marks the launch of the newest Atom CPUs, previously code-named Pineview.Īs we have already discussed, Pineview isn't designed to provide a radical improvement in performance, but instead it focuses on the mobility factor. When Intel released the Atom CPUs, netbooks received a dramatic boost in performance and battery life.

The original underclocked Celeron found in the Eee PC 2G/4G was very limiting, and for the performance offered it wasn't very efficient. One of the other changes in the netbook market has been improved CPUs. What's more, netbooks can achieve all day computing on a single charge, so many are willing to trade performance for battery life.
If your needs include gaming or computationally complex tools, you'll still want to look elsewhere, but for basic office and Internet use a netbook will suffice. The larger chassis sizes allow for a few additional features, but the core concept remains largely the same: deliver a small laptop that can run the software people need, along with some of the software they want.
The Eee PC would eventually grow up to deliver 9.1", 10.1", 11.6", and even 12.1" models. Some people loved the original Eee PC, but I wasn't one of them.

It was very light and portable and it could do basic computing, but that was about it. Way back in the day (Fall of 2007 to be exact), ASUS launched a little device called the Eee PC.
