2005 will see two big waves of new laptop computers. The first, based on Intel’s new Sonoma platform, rolled in last week. The second, based on AMD’s new Turion processor, is still several weeks off. Sonoma is the code name for Intel’s Centrino bundle, which remains one of the most effectively sold concepts from that company in some time. This recent version sports improvements in system performance, wireless capability, audio and — even though many of us aren’t supposed to be interested in this — gaming.
