Industry sources told DigiTimes that AMD is expects to see its notebook marketshare rise to more than 10 percent by mid-2010 and around 15 percent by year-end.

In addition to AMD's existing partner Hewlett-Packard (HP), vendors including Acer, Asustek Computer, Lenovo and Micro-Star International (MSI) have all launched Congo-based ultra-thin notebooks.

However, AMD's expected 15% share at the end of 2010 may still be affected if Intel counters back by cutting its notebook price since AMD's advantage in notebook segment is its pricing, the sources noted.
