AMD’s opening salvo for 2008 is underway with the announcement of the company’s LIVE! Explorer software that will be used in desktops and laptops equipped with the company’s processors. Another “product” that was introduced is the LIVE! Ultra brand that is envisioned to bring the Spider multicore platforms additional teeth to make it more responsive and a better product.
The LIVE! Explorer is what the company calls an “immersive and 3D” way of browsing through the media library of a computer user. This is done while at the same time accessing other media content like watching TV, a video or even surfing the internet in the same video.
The new “solution” will be available in AMD LIVE! desktops and laptops, AMD LIVE! Home Cinemas, Home Media Servers, Entertainment Suite and AMD LIVE! Explorer. The software can now be downloaded for free on AMD based PCs that are able to qualify their system requirements.
I’m about to check if my laptop or desktop will be able to meet the requirements. I’ll talk about this soon once I’ve downloaded it.
