1 Post No. EU antitrust officials raid Intel, computer retailers

European Union antitrust regulators raided Intel Corp. offices and computer retailers on Tuesday as part of an investigation into whether they have followed rules that ensure competition in the market for computer chips, the European Commission and Intel said.

Intel spokesman Chuck Molloy confirmed that the company's Munich, Germany, office had been raided and said the company would co-operate with the investigation.

Europe's largest consumer electronics retailer, Germany-based Media Markt, said it was also raided, as was Britain's DSG group, which owns Dixons, Currys, PC City and PC World.

The surprise inspections were the EU's first major move in response to complaints from smaller rival Advanced Micro Devices Inc., which alleges Intel pressed major stores to avoid computers using AMD chips.

Intel, the world's biggest chip maker, is already facing formal EU charges of monopoly abuse for below-cost customer rebates and pricing that the EU says undercut AMD and discouraged manufacturers from building computers with the smaller firm's chips.

The raids focused on the final link in the supply chain — the stores that sell computers directly to users. AMD claims a wide range of bullying tactics by Intel shut out all of the larger firm's rivals.

The EU said there was no strict deadline for deciding whether to file charges or drop the case. EU fines can go as high as 10 per cent of a company's yearly global revenue. Last year, Intel's revenue amounted to $6.98 billion.

Intel, based in Santa Clara, Calif., sells more than three-quarters of all microprocessors, the brains of computers, that use Microsoft Corp.'s Windows operating system.

The EU formally charged Intel last July — six years after it first started looking at the company — alleging the company gave "substantial rebates" to computer makers for buying most of their x86 central processing units, or CPUs, from Intel.

The EU executive also accused Intel of making payments to manufacturers to get them to delay or cancel product lines using AMD chips and that it sold its own chips below average cost to strategic server customers — such as governments and universities — when bidding against AMD-based products.

Below-cost or predatory pricing may be good for shoppers in the short term, but in the EU view, it ultimately harms consumers by killing off rivals that allow more choice and innovations.

EU officials also looked at whether Intel had urged Media Markt not to sell computers using AMD chips. The chain, which is owned by German retailer Metro AG, has more than 360 stores in Germany, France, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland, Poland, Hungary, the Netherlands, Italy, Spain and Greece.

8 Post No. Sorting through Intel's SoC drawer

IDF Intel launched its first foray into the world of system-on-a-chip (SoC) products for consumer electronics kit in April this year. Then, at its Spring IDF conference, it launched the CE2110, an ARM-based CPU with a built-in graphics engine, memory controller and more.

At the time, Intel's Digital Home Group chief, Eric Kim, mentioned that the chip giant would next year offer an updated SoC based not on ARM CPU technology, but on its own x86 instruction set, as used in all its desktop and mobile processors.

Six months or so on, at the Autumn IDF, Intel CEO Paul Otellini put a name to the project - 'Canmore' - and said it would make its first public appearance in January 2008 at the CES show.

Like the CE2110, Canmore is aimed at TVs and set-top boxes. The current chip combines a 1GHz processing core with a memory controller; a PowerVR MBX Lite GPU; controllers for USB, SATA, PCI, smart cards and other ports and interconnects; decoders for MPEG 2 and H.264 video; digital and analogue display drivers; a transport stream handler; TV descrambling circuitry; and an AES encryption module.

Canmore is likely to contain all these elements - Otellini mentioned the chip's AV pipeline, GPU, I/O components and a security sub-system - with a low-power x86 core, possibly based on the 45nm 'Silverthorne' CPU Intel is developing for UMPCs and mobile web gadgets.

20071006-08 - building Hades - 138-3823 - CPU in box (Intel Core2Duo E6750 2.66gHz) by ClintJCL.
I did my research, and this was the most badass CPU that could be purchased without over-paying. I believe it was only released about 4 or 5 months before purchase, but Intel already had several more powerful CPUs out since, so the price had dropped a bit.

BACKSTORY: So, as mentioned before (in a 10-part series of blog posts), my trusty computer of 9 years, "Storm", died a nasty death. My secondary/kitchen computer "Hell" stepped up to bat and took Storm's place, but I still needed a new computer for our somewhat newly-built upstairs space. So I built Hades, during which I wrote another 5 blog posts. These are the pictures I took while building it.

Windows ReadyBoost. A Windows Vista a disk caching technology which can increase your windows vista computer with more high-speed memory.ReadyBoost disk caching technology is using flash memory on an USB 2.0 drive, SD card, CompactFlash, or other form of flash memory to make computers that running Windows Vista more responsive and boost vista system performances. Meanwhile, ReadyBoost can consider as an alternative solution to increase memory and more applications are ready to run without accessing the hard drive.

This ReadyBoost disk caching technology is using the intelligent memory management of Windows SuperFetch which significantly improve system responsiveness on your windows vista and help to resolve the slow paging file on your vista hard disk.

Pentium M: Laptops Flex Their Muscles

In 2003 the market for portable PCs was booming and Intel had only two processors for them: the aging Pentium III Tualatin and the Pentium 4, whose high power consumption made it unsuitable. But a savior was to arrive from Israel: the Banias (alias Pentium M). This processor, based on the P6 architecture (the same as the Pentium Pro) had high performance and low power consumption. It even beat the Pentium 4, while consuming a lot less power. This was the processor used in the Centrino platform and it was quickly followed (in 2004) by the (faster) Dothan model. The Pentium M left its mark on the world of mobility, and the Stealey (A100) still uses the Dothan architecture (with lower frequencies and TDP).
