Dennis Hughes

There is a long future ahead for the Mac. I don't think Apple would switch to a new processor core if they weren't looking to carry the Mac ahead for the foreseeable future.

Ross Rubin

Meanwhile, that's been in the midst of reasonably stable pricing in the processor business and I think that the stable pricing is about to come to an end. By the end of this year, we're going to see sharply eroding prices as we get into the first half of next year.

Drew Peck

It's the industry's highest performing processor.

Gilles Delfassy

You can expect AMD to bring out a dual-core mobile processor with DDR-2 memory in the second quarter of this year.

David Rooney

We are establishing a new standard for low power in a PC processor.

Frank Spindler

This is the first word processor to be able to import PDF documents without having to copy and paste. Also, most tables will retain their formatting.

Richard Carriere

With the phenomenal market growth of Power and [the Power5 processor], we have a lot of interested parties. It's only been discussions, but they are interested in the market performance of Power and AIX.

Karl Freund

It was becoming a real issue for them [Oracle]. They heard from customers they needed a new way of thinking about multi-core without treating each core as a separate processor.

Larry Singer

The T1 addresses this issue as a massively threaded processor that can handle more tasks on a single piece of silicon. Customers can now do a lot more without adding hardware.

Fadi Azhari

It was because as a processor vendor, that's the only way we could provide performance within the right power envelope.

Margaret Lewis

It's hard to maintain specialized devices. If you are running Linux, and you can use a mainstream processor and get enough memory in there, you can start thinking about Java SE, and you can have a lot of functionality.

Dave Hofert

We're not going into details on the specifics of the processor other than to say we're not satisfied with the quality right now.

Scott Mclaughlin

Moore's Law says that every 18 months, customers can buy the same processor for half the price, or twice the power in a processor for the same price.

Donald Luskin

We believe that Intel's lead in [the] 65nm transition should provide it a limited performance boost given the limitation of its current processor architecture.

Charles Santiago

China should realize that IPR are vital for transforming China from the world's top processor to one of its most important innovators, as well as for the country to occupy the higher-end of the market.

Tian Lipu

The idea that the digital camera is mature is, I believe, a naive view. We are just in the early days of what a processor behind a lens can do.

Mark Cook

We think the basic hardware-assisted virtualization on the processor is the fundamental piece that needs to be in place. We agree that I/O virtualization is a natural follow-on, but we think we can make a lot of headway in improving virtualization with this first step.

Lorie Wigle

This is the first DSP to have a dedicated co-processor on a standard, off-the-shelf product.

Markus Levy

The purity of doing things to drive processor revenue is over. This is designed to drive revenue, and it's possible that they could become the No. 1 or 2 player. They may not understand the business, but they can hire people that do.

Scott Randall

It makes a device, a digital sound processor that turns analog voice into numbers which then could be transmitted through fiber-optic cables and cell phones and any device like that. The growth of this is explosive.

Jim Glickenhaus

That capability from IBM really came about because they were able to build an architecture that had a much lower processor requirement with very extreme levels of performance. That gave them a tremendous price-to-performance advantage in that market versus their traditional competitors, HP and Sun.

Brad Day

Although we plan to upgrade soon to a more powerful processor, we try to make as few changes as possible.

Robert Miggins

Windows XP and the Pentium 4 processor will enable [the Giga PC].

Pat Gelsinger

Video gaming requires a high-power processor with cooling fans that can be noisy. We wanted something that could go in the kitchen that is quiet.

Mark Biegel

Historically, the highest-end chips of this year become the mid-range chips of next year. That's always been the case, ... Two years ago, people were asking why they needed a 200 MHz Pentium processor. Now, most people wouldn't be caught without at least that.

Danny Lam

On a very low processor count, IBM now has performance benchmarks that are really going to put HP and Sun in a quandary, because they're going to have to match them.

Brad Day

She doesn't like to use a food processor.

Julie Powell

Through collaboration, Power.org is creating unprecedented opportunities for its members. New collaborative efforts with Power.org members like Rapport will continue to deliver innovations in processor design.

Nigel Beck

Sun has given a speed boost to its installed base as the company focuses on x64 systems and the forthcoming Niagara processor.

Gordon Haff

The programming approach for the Cell BE processor is a different paradigm for many software developers. We are delighted to see how quickly the participants in our early training classes have caught on.

Craig Lund

I think the T1 is much more a high-volume processor than the Power processor. My expectation is we'll see higher penetration of Linux and a quicker adoption rate.

Mike Splain

Engineers want more than a bare processor. So, we offer a tool, SOPC Builder that lets developers choose the peripherals and processors for their design. Then they connect the processor to the memories, the DMA channels to the peripherals and so on.

Bob Garrett

What's not to like? For $1999 you are going to get the processor speed you thought you had to spend $2499 to get.
