- Intel Prototype May Herald a New Age of Processing
  Posted by Jeff from New York Times
  The Teraflop chip, which consumes just 62 watts at teraflop speeds and which is air-cooled, contains an internal data packet router in each processor tile. It is able to move data among tiles in as little as 1.25 nanoseconds, making it possible to transfer 80 billion bytes a second among the internal cores.

- A Chip That Can Transfer Data Using Laser Light
  Posted by Billbar from New York Times
  Researchers plan to announce on Monday that they have created a silicon-based chip that can produce laser beams. The advance will make it possible to use laser light rather than wires to send data between chips, removing the most significant bottleneck in computer design. As a result, chip makers may be able to put the high-speed data communications industry on the same curve of increased processing speed and diminishing costs — the phenomenon known as Moore’s law — that has driven the computer industry for the last four decades. The development is a result of research at Intel, the world’s largest chip maker, and the University of California, Santa Barbara. Commercializing the new technology may not happen before the end of the decade, but the prospect of being able to place hundreds or thousands of data-carrying light beams on standard industry chips is certain to shake up both the communications and computer industries.

- Intel lowers the boom on marketing, IT departments
  Posted by Billbar from News.com
  Intel announced plans Tuesday to lay off thousands of workers over the next year after a strategic review designed to prepare the company for life with a smaller share of the chip market. As first reported by CNET News.com, the layoffs primarily hit the marketing and information technology departments. The company said it will have 10,500 fewer employees by mid-2007, as compared with its headcount at the end of this year's second quarter.

  Three-quarters of the Macs sold featured Intel processors. Pretty impressive migration to Intel.

  This hurts Dell and other PC makers over time. Shouldn't hurt MS initially, but will over time.
