Intel Launches to CPU Design to Come Out in 2006
Looks like Intel is focusing design efforts on the Pentium M model. It's strange to have companies more worried about performance per watt than raw speed.Intel Corp. showed off three microprocessors Tuesday based on a next-generation technology that tries to maximize performance and power efficiency while minimizing electricity bills. The new chips, expected to become available in the second half of 2006, are partly based on the design in the Pentium M -- the processor component of the company's popular Centrino technology for notebook computers. It also will share some features with the Pentium 4 underlying architecture.
