My eyes popped out on looking at this page:

:shock:

Currently they have 25W mobile CPUs which have half their cache disabled, but a 45W CPU with 12MB L2 cache is AMAZING.

:shock:

THAT CAN't BE!!!!

And I only got news of a 65W one!!!!!!!

Oh wait wait, this one, I think it's a mobile CPU.

see the name first: "Intel® Core™2 Quad Mobile Processor Q9100"

so what if its mobile ?
it will be later ported to desktops.
each time intel decides to bring energy efficient desktop CPUs they use existing mobile CPUs.

^^ Yes later.

Right now Q9550 sells for ~280$.(95W TDP)

So they decide to reduce voltage and sell the same processor as Q9550S for ~350$(65W TDP)

Then when the price of Q9550S falls to below 280$, INTEL will again further reduce the voltage and maybe name is Q9550Sx for ~375$(45W TDP).

All f****** market strategy.

^^ all f****** market stratagy ?
I would love to see how YOU start a company that stays on the top of the world for 20 years

^^^Lol yes it is hard i noe. After all, they also have to earn.
