This might have been said, but AMD seriously did a mistake when doing those super low end systems, like the laptop I'm currently typing on which has a E1-6010 APU in it. It's slow, which is not so strange as it's a 1.35Ghz dual core and it's a €200 laptop, but what will happen in a case like this? Someone buys it cheap, realizes it is, with all the bloatware, ads on the web etc, actually not a functioning computer. Or it's functioning, but it's ... painfully slow. The only branding it has is Lenovo and AMD. If they buy something new they'll get something more expensive and end up with something Intel and they'll say "I had something AMD and it was soooo slow but this new thing is much nicer" which we know is not strange, but the consumer will see it as an AMD fault. The new system is a Lenovo and it's much faster and it has an Intel something in it. That's how many people think (and no, it's not even stupidity, just disinterest).
Intel got away with the Atoms because they're ubiqutous.
EDIT: Not to mention even I am super confused with the mobile naming schemes AMD has. Intel's are confusing too, but AMD is even worse.
