Intel has decided to borrow the sequential naming scheme it used for its famous Pentium brand and apply it to the new Core line of chips.
Hewlett-Packard will launch its new high-end Unix server in March, but because Intel delayed its new "Montecito" version of Itanium, the system will initially come with the current "Madison" processor.
Intel has begun to produce chips made on the 65-nanometer process, adding an optimistic note to what has been a somewhat tough month for the chip giant.
Intel officially closed the books on the Pentium era on Thursday with the Core 2 Duo, its most important product launch in 13 years.
Advanced Micro Devices introduced its dual-core desktop chips in Taiwan on Tuesday, and manufacturers such as Hewlett-Packard, Acer and Lenovo Group have lined up to discuss how they will use the chips in their product lines.

Intel will increase the speed of the chipset on the Pentium 4 in the coming months, a change that will likely boost the performance of top-end PCs.
Intel won't ship a 4GHz version of the Pentium 4 until the first quarter of 2005, the latest in a series of delays for the chip-making giant.
Intel officially closed the books on the Pentium era on Thursday with the Core 2 Duo, its most important product launch in 13 years.
The Dell Inspiron 9400 packs a solid set of multimedia features, and when configured with Intel's Core Duo processor, it has enough power to speed through virtually any task, from editing video to playing games.
If you thought dual cores were over the top, get ready. Intel presents the Core 2 Extreme QX6700, a single CPU with four distinct processing cores. The first quad-core CPU will remain an enthusiast part for a while, but as a glimpse of the future, it's clear that clock speed is out and core counts are in.
Intel's Core architecture now underlies mobile, desktop and server chips, and is a major departure from the Pentium 4's NetBurst design.
The main draw of Acer's latest carbon fibre flagship model is its cutting-edge components and swivel webcam. However, in terms of design, there is much room for improvement.
