Leaks from the Pine Tree Pine Nut Pine Trail roadmap from Intel suggests that going forward, certain Atom processors will support 2GB of RAM, a jump from the previous 1GB max instituted by Intel as a measure to prevent cannibalisation between netbooks and processors in middle tiers.
According to Fudzilla, the 1.83GHz N470 processor will be the first to support more RAM, and will run between $US300-$US350. And if the rumour holds true, there will also be a 1.66GHz Atom processor that will cost as little as $US250. [Fudzilla via Electronista]
The netbooks that all year 9 students got have Atom processors and 2 GB RAM... And it uses an N270 @ 1.6 GHz
I got my MSI wind upgraded to 2 gb of ram, and both 2 gbs are used, so this doesn't make much sense
I have a HP Netbook with 2Gb RAM. What gives????
