AMD, one of the leading manufacturers providing processors for computers has issued their plan to release Bobcat and Bulldozer processors in 2011. Both are said to have different usages for different needs. The AMD Bobcat, for example, is designed to be the “brain” part of products such as netbooks or ultrathin gadgets. Meanwhile, AMD Bulldozer is aimed at equipping the inside body of CPUs.

The release of the processors in 2011 is hoped to shift Intel Atom and Xeon processors as the most generally used processors. The AMD Bobcat is especially made as one of the descendant of AMD Fusion processors. After the Ontario APU, other Fusion series, the AMD Llano is hitting the computer market at the end of the year 2010 if not in early 2011.

AMD Bulldozer can be also a part of the Fusion generation, however, the early design of this processor is not aimed at it. Rather, the Bulldozer was intended for consumers with higher computing needs. The Interlagos processor from Opteron is promoted to have half of the power the AMD Bulldozer has. Until now, the launching and winning features from AMD Bobcat and Bulldozer are just promises from AMD Company. Hope AMD will not break their promises next year.
