Intel is expected to announce the release of its 2 GHz P4-M on Tuesday 25 June, Australia time, and laptop manufacturers are gearing up to be the first to market.
Intel has announced the release of a pair of high-speed Pentium 4 processors.
Hewlett-Packard apparently slipped up and revealed some of the specifications for Advanced Micro Devices' upcoming Athlon64 chip, a processor that HP seems to be preparing to use in its PCs.
The latest notebook chip from Intel will come out May 10, according to sources, along with price cuts and a new naming scheme.
Intel on Monday formally launched three new laptop chips and outlined a push to equip more consumer-oriented notebooks with wireless networking.
Improvements to the processor, chipset and wireless components of Intel's latest mobile platform should result in a new generation of faster notebooks with longer battery life. Business systems will also get Intel's Active Management Technology (AMT) for the first time, while Turbo Memory should reduce the frequency of hard disk accesses, saving power and boosting performance.
The launch of the 2.4GHz processor for desktops, the chipmaker's fastest Pentium 4 to date, is part of bigger plan to push the Pentium 4 into nearly every sector in the PC market.
Optimism was the main message from Intel CEO Craig Barrett during the company's annual analyst conference Thursday, as he and other executives introduced plans for new chips and improved chipmaking processes.
Apple Computer has broken the 1GHz barrier not once but twice with the delivery of new Power Macs.
Dell's Inspiron 8200 Pentium 4-M 2.0GHz certainly has a lot of processing power. How does it stack up against its immediate predecessors?
Along with the new Tiger OS, the iMac G5 gets more muscle beneath its sleek exterior, making the all-in-one desktop a stronger performer and a better deal.
Intel will celebrate the Fourth of July with the launch of faster Pentium 4 chips, but don't expect fireworks or a major bump in lagging Pentium 4 sales. The chipmaker will release 1.8GHz and 1.6GHz Pentium 4 processors in early July, sources said.
Intel's first Celeron chips based on the architecture behind the Pentium 4 will come out next week, a move that will allow the company to cover the entire PC market with the same chip design.
Intel has halved the list prices of some of its Pentium 4 desktop chips in a sweeping price cut.
