Intel started offering a series of CPUs in June that are not on its roadmap with aggressive pricing for international notebook makers, according to sources.

Intel began supplying its T2250 and T2050 CPUs for first-tier notebook makers in June, with the processors having similar performance to that of the Core Duo T2300 but priced at around US$100, around the same price as Celeron-M processors, industry sources said. Some makers are even getting quotes at 70% of the original pricing, according to several China-based PC testing websites.
