Still, Intel's far smaller rival did well against Intel in 2001. AMD gained 3.5 points of the market for microprocessors last year against Intel, according to figures released this week by Mercury Research.
AMD increased its share of the microprocessor market to 20.2 percent in 2001 from 16.7 percent in 2000, while Intel closed out 2001 with 78.7 percent of the market, down from 82.2 percent during 2000.
The Athlon 4 processor 1500+ is the first mobile chip from AMD that uses a model name rather than its clock speed to distinguish it.
AMD claims that the performance of a microprocessor is determined by more than just its clock speed and should include how many transactions per minute the chip can perform, among other measures.
The company first moved to the model name branding strategy with its Athlon desktop PC processor late last year, and it introduced the Athlon 4 mobile processor in May 2001.
