Intel will launch a line of new chips for mobile PCs next week that includes a low-cost Celeron running at more that 1GHz. The Santa Clara, Calif.-based chipmaker will release a new mobile Celeron running at 1.06GHz and two low-power Pentium III-M chips for ultra-portable machines, sources familiar with Intel's plans said. Soon after the launch, consumers can expect to see new notebooks with the chips and price cuts on existing systems. Intel declined to comment. The Celeron is the lower-cost relative of the more feature-rich Pentium chip.
