Now unless you are a serious gadget freak, you'd have absolutely no idea what your selling.

And to be certain they make their daily revenue, Best Buy employess will sell you whatever they feel like. I know people who go to these stores to buy a laptop for Microsoft Office and come home with Core 2 Duo's and 3 MB of RAM for nearly $2000.

I realize its all about marketing but Intel would probably do better if they made their CPU speeds and uses more transparent to the lay end user.]]>Mar 2nd 2008 9:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/02/intels-silverthorn-becomes-the-atom-menlow-the-centrino-atom/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/02/intels-silverthorn-becomes-the-atom-menlow-the-centrino-atom/

OK, I was never a fan of the Pentium name (how long ago are 586es now?), but still, such a waste. Now they're throwing out the Core Duo name. Very wasteful.]]>Mar 2nd 2008 9:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/02/intels-silverthorn-becomes-the-atom-menlow-the-centrino-atom/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/02/intels-silverthorn-becomes-the-atom-menlow-the-centrino-atom/ PENTIUM 4" labeling.

They lost that when the moved TO the name Pentium. Until that the generation was in the name. In fact, I'd say Core and Atom are probably better names since they don't sound like meaningless baby talk.]]>Mar 2nd 2008 9:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/02/intels-silverthorn-becomes-the-atom-menlow-the-centrino-atom/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/02/intels-silverthorn-becomes-the-atom-menlow-the-centrino-atom/But hey.

..do they still end in 86? If so, let's hear them.

No, Intel abandoned the 80x86 nomenclature starting with the Pentium.

Pentium: 80501, 80502

news: Both processors will have a thermal design power specification—an Intel term that refers to the amount of heat a chip dissipates—of 2.5-watts or less and a clock speed of 1.8GHz

The chip is less than 25 square millimeters, and 11 of the chip's dies--the slivers of silicon with 47 million transistors each--would fit in an area the size of a U.S. penny
