In May, Dell, the last of the major Intel only computer makers, announced its first ever deal with AMD to include Opteron processors in its server range. Since that time, the market has been waiting on an announcement concerning AMD chips in Dell desktops and notebooks.
Dell today unveiled four new desktop models, two of which contain AMD processors. The new Dimension E521 and C521 Dell home or small office dektops will include AMD Athlon or Sempron processors.
However, Intel has by no means been abandoned by Dell, with the rollout of two new Intel-based desktops. The E520 offers either a dual-core Pentium D or the new Core 2 Duo 64-bit processor. Dell has also released a business desktop, the OptiPlex 745, which includes a Core 2 Duo processor.
The announcement of a deal in the low-end consumer space with Dell is a big boost for AMD because that is by far its weakest market. The next hurdle for AMD is the Dell notebook range.
