AMD has introduced AMD Business Class, an initiative dedicated to developing AMD processor-based commercial desktop and notebook solutions designed specifically for businesses. AMD Business Class technology is designed to offer tools for OEMs. The launch of AMD Business Class also brings with it the introduction of AMD’s new line of commercial stable AMD Athlon and AMD Phenom processors.

"IT decision-makers have a broad range of commercial client solutions to choose from and it is not always clear which systems deliver the best business value," said Dirk Meyer, president and COO, AMD. :At its heart, AMD Business Class processors are based on the same innovative technology that powers the world’s most advanced servers. Our solutions are designed to give commercial customers the assurance that platforms are designed with their business in mind to help get more from their computing infrastructure, longer."

AMD also unveiled the first AMD commercial desktop platform solution. The platform includes a new stable lineup of processors. These commercial stable processors include native AMD Phenom X3 triple-core and AMD Phenom X4 quad-core processors, as well as AMD Athlon X2 dual-core processors. OEMs can choose AMD 780V chipsets or optional ATI Radeon HD 3000 series discrete graphics, and the platform also supports non-AMD graphics and chipsets.
