First glance of AMD's next gen mobile platform - PUMA !

At CeBit we managed to sneak behind the scene in AMD's meeting booth, and we were showed a live demo - a comparison of Blu-Ray HD movie playback on upcoming PUMA laptop (this sample was produced by MSI), and yours today's standard intel Centrino… Difference was huge - AMD played HD video nicely and smoothly all the way, while Intel had big problems - skipping frames, freezing for few seconds at the time, broken image with lots of artefacts (boxes)… We also noticed that PUMA had an Engineering sample of new Turion, clocked at 2,4 GHZ! We were forbid to take a close picture of CPU clock screen…

Here is the video, to prove it!
