Classmate PC is Intel's future generation of netbooks.
Some traditional netbooks using Intel's Atom N2600 chips are still being sold in some markets, especially in Southeast Asia and Europe. In addition, according to sources from supply chains in Taiwan, another reason that Intel and Microsoft decided to still develop netbooks, is to compete with Google's Chromebook platform as well as low-priced laptops. Today's Chromebook models, although they also have Intel chip models, are mostly using the chip and ARM giant's platform.
