"Technology brands, such as the new AMD Turion64 brand for its mobile PC processors, reflect how PC technology providers are adapting standardized technologies, such as the x86 instruction set, to meet the needs of consumer and commercial mobile PC users." "In cycling, just like any other elite competition, there is a thin line between success and failure," said Lance Armstrong, champion cyclist. "As our team's technology partner, AMD helps us achieve uncompromising performance, extraordinary mobility and exceptional reliability." By working with best-in-class industry partners, AMD enables its customers to develop differentiated solutions based on open standards, to uniquely satisfy the variety of ways in which notebooks are used.
