Just last year, the Atom processor was nearing its maximum production capacity and there were claims that this processor would be short in supply. On the other hand, amidst the global economic meltdown, the Atom processor continued to enjoy positive demand and growth as there were tons to electronic devices were utilizing the processor.
However, of late, the demand for the Atom processors seems to be cooling down. In fact, the Atoms are facing two new challenges, which are slower demands for netbooks as well as increasing competition from other processor manufacturers such as the ION platform by NVIDIA and Intel’s own CULV.
Personally, I think Atom processors are simply insufficient for heavy usage and it’s really an utter rubbish if you want to watch many high definition movies together. Well it deserves to go through a slow down – finally.
