Intel : New CPU Architecture for OLPC
Posted by Abhishek Vij on October 16, 2007
Intel plans to develop new CPU architecture for ultra-low cost laptop computers because none of the current Intel processors fit the specifications for the one laptop per child notebook program (OLPC), so Intel is designing a new processor specifically for the ultra-low cost laptop category where the AMD 433MHz Geode LX-700 reigns king.
Intel said that they needed a new architecture instead of an establised old architecture besides having Celeron M series becauase of the small size, low cost and low power consumption required by the OLPC laptop .
Looks like Intel is going after AMD in this market segment too, there is nothin better than having a nice competition between AMD and Intel
