Nvidia Unveils Next-Generation Ion Platform
Nvidia's Next Generation Ion, revealed today, sort of makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up--the marketing message just isn't clear. It's no longer a "platform" - it's an add-on to an existing platform in the same way that any GeForce discrete graphics chip is an add-on. It's just... GeForce for netbooks. Read this week's Mobile Computing for my take on the new mobile graphics chip. - Jason Cross, PCWorld
