A recent survey shows that the sheer amount of different brand names is extremely confusing to customers. Making matters worse, product brands were associated with the wrong manufacturer 17% – 50% of the time.
Core Duo, Core2 Duo, Pentium Dual Core, Fusion, CoreFusion. Confusion? That seems to be the mental state of consumers, based on a new report that says a dizzying array of chip brands isn't much help for buyers. Surprisingly, even tech savvy early adopters mix up all the monikers that Intel, AMD and others dream up, according to a survey conducted by market researcher In-Stat.
