Taiwanese chip manufacturer Via Technologies has released a new energy efficient CPU, the Via Nano, which will go head-to-head with Intel's latest mobile processor the Atom.
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.
Intel has announced the release of a pair of high-speed Pentium 4 processors.
Big Blue will soon offer more energy-efficient dual-processor servers using new AMD and Intel chips in Australia.
Next week will see the launch of the new top-of-the-line chip in a revamp of Sun's core Unix server line, News.com has learned.
AMD, Infineon and United Microelectronics are to work together to develop manufacturing processes that allow even more microelements to be included in chips.

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.
Despite Intel's protests, it appears that a Pentium 4 desktop processor can be effectively used in a laptop computer--which, if done correctly, could save some buyers hundreds of dollars, according to testing by ZDNet UK Reviews.
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.
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.
AMD, Infineon and United Microelectronics are to work together to develop manufacturing processes that allow even more microelements to be included in chips.
Speed isn't a measure of speed. That's Intel's message with its new naming scheme for its mobile CPUs.
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.
While the higher power consumption is a slight concern, the X4 955 proves that AMD is back in the performance game and ready to play hard ball. Bring on the next generation.
