Intel vPro Technology Logo Marking

The Quad core microprocessor was recently released into the market so the prices for it is still in the marked up premium levels. However, the slightly older Intel® Core™2 Duo Processors have reduced prices since the newer Quad core chips are taking up most of the present attention of consumers, leaving the older chips to be stock cleared to accommodate more quad core offerings. The chips that have vPro technology in them have the vPro marking on the logo as in the above image.

Another Gold Price Plunge Makes Sense

Making some sense, the gold price will drop some more but not as much as the first drop. You may consider the event much like an earthquake aftershock. Some of the new investors will wait for the price second price drop, which presumably & precariously starts soon while other new investors will wait for the gold price to recover to the $900 level before buying gold. Underlying Notion: My 2 Cents on the Current Gold Price

It makes sense to anticipate that until the new investors do not enter the gold market then the price of gold will continue its second plunge downwards until the new investors see the opportunity in buying cheap gold. New gold investors are expected because of the loom of economic recession in the US, Europe, & Japan. Investors need insurance; even with buying gold. Gold Price Had Gone Down as Expected.

AMD Keeps Intel on It's Toes

Intel manufactures large volumes of state of the art microprocessors consistently. Intel has deep pockets & takes advantage of it marvelously! AMD cannot, at present match the speed & consistency of Intel production. Do you reckon AMD will ever top Intel to be Number One? The best AMD managed was for a couple of months in 2006, a company worth $20 billion, looking like a real side by side competitor with its 64 bit microprocessors. Today, AMD is worth about $3.8 billion after acquiring the popular graphics chipmaker, ATI last year.

Nonetheless, the presence of AMD in the chip market has over the years, contributed to Intel having to cut its chip prices & improve its own products. AMD keeps Intel on its toes to maintain the position as market leader & microprocessor technology innovator. Do you agree that AMD is the major force that makes Intel reduce it's chip prices? Without AMD, as in the past years of it being in obscurity & before competing directly with Intel; Intel was commanding premium prices & slower as compared to today to provide new microprocessors.

Better Pillows for Better Sleep

I reckon you would agree with me when I say that sleep is just great. You could be among the people who take their sleeping pleasure to the max by using a wedge pillow or two to make their sleep as comfortable as possible. Having a good night’s sleep every night makes a person healthier. Do you toss & turn at night, trying hard to sleep? The answer may lie in a simple pillow where you rest your head.

Yes, choosing the right pillow for you will help you sleep better at night. How do you know that you are using the wrong pillow? Well, one sign of bad pillow-ship is that your neck feels stiff in the morning after you wake up from slumber. A pillow that is too hard feels like sleeping on a brick while a too soft pillow makes you feel like there is nothing supporting your head. You may also decide to purchase a special contoured pillow designed to support your neck & head while you sleep. Happy sleeping!

Dunnigton 6 Core Chip Peta Flop Computing Capability

The Dunnington 6 core microprocessors from Intel are the next in line to be released to the consumer market. Users of the Dunnington microprocessors will own a piece of Peta flop level computing technology. Don't you think that it's only part of Intel's marketing strategy? The Peta flop computing technology, a computer that calculates a thousand trillion flotation points per second, exists in Intel’s lab demo of a powerful peta flop computer that utilizes Dunnington microprocessors.

It seems that from a marketing point of view, Intel is using its research & development arm to show consumers the full capability of its microprocessors. It is unlikely that an individual home user will be buying like 60 or more pieces of Dunnigton microprocessors to build a peta flop home computer. Nonetheless, the appeal of it exists, & people will go like “You know, I own a 6 core Intel microprocessor that has peta-flop computing potential!” One must admit that it is a very appealing prospect! Do you want a piece of peta-flop computer for basic home use?

Banzai Your Sushi for Ultimate Glory

One new game is out in the market for you to play with your friends at home or while you & your work colleagues are at office while the boss is away. The game is called Banzai after the Japanese word meaning to ‘charge’ or ‘attack’. However, there is no charging into battle with the game, rather players ‘charge’ their sushi, placed into bowls as bets on DVD scenarios using chopsticks within 15 seconds. Ultimate glory goes to the winner who wins all the sushi!

Obviously, the Banzai game from ScreenLife Games is very Japanese themed. However, the promoters do not even talk proper broken Japanese which makes the whole event even funnier. Also note that Tako, the Octopus mascot of the game has his very own MySpace page (www.myspace.com/takotheocto) for fans & Banzai game enthusiasts to check on the game’s current happenings.

ScreenLife Games is at it again. They launched a new Banzai game. Check it out:

The Banzai game is available for purchase online for about $27 inclusive of FREE shipping in the US. Simply click on the BUY tab on the Banzai.com website & you will be led to a purchase page. Banzai!

Intel’s Main Advantage: Speed of Having New Products

Let us briefly compare side by side, the main offerings from both Intel & AMD quad core microprocessors. You can see that AMD’s strategy is taking the competitors weakness as its strength. AMD keeps mentioning about its superior 2mb L3 cache; touted as better than any of its competitors while Intel is in a competition with its own past achievements. Intel is staying away from a head to head “chicken play” with AMD by producing new products much faster than its nearest competitors even though it misses a few innovative hits like a new L3 cache.


However, Intel more than compensates by improving it microprocessors in other avenues like SSE4 instructions & more efficient materials like the hafnium metal gate silicon technology. Intel’s speed of having new products into the computer consumer market is the main reason why it is the microprocessor market leader today. Are you opinionated that AMD is doing it's best to compete with Intel? People usually want a new product they can use now rather than wait for a marginally better product after a few months. AMD’s chance to be the new market leader will come from its ability to do the same like Intel; not only talk the talk but also walk the walk.

About a Billion Transistors on New 45nm Chips

Intel’s newest range of microprocessors, the dual core & quad core Penryn offerings have more than 400 million transistors & more than 800 million transistors in their silicon space respectively. It's amazing to be able to make such small things work! I reckon going smaller will continue until it's too expensive to go any smaller.

Some fun facts about the 45nm transistor technology:

• More than 2 million 45nm transistors can fit in the period at the end of the sentence.
• 2000 of 45nm transistors can be placed on the width of a human hair.
• A 45nm transistor can switch on & off 300 billion instances per second. A light beam can travel a tenth of an inch during the duration a transistor switches on & off.

InTel’s New Six Core Chip Necessary for Consumers?

Hence, the question of “Does your computer system really need the extra cores?” comes into mind. Parties who have just bought into the dual core & quad core chips will perhaps think about the unused cores on their computers before upgrading. Therefore, there is a chance for AMD to retain some market share in the second half of 2008 as people are reluctant to upgrade to unnecessary six core advancement from Intel. It seems that the only reason why Intel is coming out with the six core Dunnington chip is to show the consumers how far ahead it is in 2008 against AMD.
