For Intel, the future has two cores
Intel is thinking dual-core is the way to go and they made that very apparent at the IDF. The company demoed a dual-core Itanium system, while also unveiling plans for a dual-core P4 and a dual-core mobile solution.
"We are dedicating all of our future product development to multi-core designs," Otellini said. "We believe this is a key inflection point for the industry."
40 percent of desktop chips and 70 percent of notebooks chips that Intel ships in 2006 will be dual-core. Of server chips, 85 percent will be dual-core, he added.
