Remember when we first heard that a mythical
Atom D510 was on Intel's roadmap way back in June? Yeah, turns out that memo was spot-on, and while the chip maker has since gone official with the next-gen architecture, we've yet to see it within any machine outside of a
trade show floor... until now. Halfway around the world, the KND K1850 all-in-one nettop is said to be packing a dual-core 1.66GHz D510 (
Pineview) chip, an 18.6-inch display, 250GB hard drive, 2GB of RAM and a DVD drive. There's also inbuilt WiFi, a 3-in-1 card reader and a few USB ports, though there's no indication that it'll ever ship to anywhere outside of Asia. 'Course, about four billion other machines from Acer, ASUS, Dell, HP and Lenovo will, and you can bet your bottom dollar that they'll all have the exact same specifications. Oh, joy.

wow, I just noticed that too..
No, this is the *cue dramatic percussion music* the pine TRIAL!
Who will pass? Who will go home! Watch and find out!
What is it with Engadget's obstinant refusal to correct glaring typos? It's too simple a fix not to do. Do they want to look like idiots?
This thing will be nice when talking about boosting laptops battery life, but for desktops... meh... I'd rather go with something completely different. It's just a wasted desktop if we cant plug a graphics cards to it.
Here's a laptop with the "pine trial".

this chip will be limper than my shrivelled pecker
Is anybody else bothered by the fact that the mouse is backwards in the picture?
lol.
Does this chip/chipset finally let Atom use over 2GB of memory?
