Intel’s HOT New “Merom” Chip for Laptops!

And, I mean “HOT” in both senses… it seems to run hotter, and very fast in the “hot” sense as well! But, the new CPU chip is out!

Mobile Core2 Duo: Performance at a Cost

“The mobile version of the Core2 Duo, code-named Merom, completes the circle: The company now has the same architecture across desktop, mobile, and most server platforms. The mobile version is identical architecturally to the desktop Core2 Duo, but adds more aggressive power management. That’s a good thing, as we’ll see shortly, because the new CPU can run hotter when pushed hard than Intel’s previous Core Duo mobile line.

So, there you go! “HOT!”
