news 28 Posted January 12, 2009 NVIDIA had some Ion platforms on display at CES 2009 last week and we had the chance to talk with the company about their goals for the project. We also have some of the first benchmarks of the palm-sized-PC courtesy of NVIDIA as well.

While the netbooks argument is pretty basic, the notebook section above is more interesting. Essentially, NVIDIA is saying that companies that choose to use the Intel Atom processor in conjunction with the NVIDIA Ion platform can save as much as 80% on the CPU cost rather than going with an Intel Core CPU and still get high quality graphics and computing performance."
