Intel plans processor party for June

so for numbering system: "The processor number is designed to help consumers distinguish between two or three similar Pentium or Celeron processors. It also signals a major shift for the chipmaker, which is moving away from the practice of touting speed after years of marketing chips by focusing on gigahertz."

will a celleron of same cpu speed be like a 1 and a pentium be a 100, or will it be like 99 vs 100, just wondering if consumers will really be able to use this "numbering" system or if it will be misleading as OEMs will abuse it; Posted by: V Sanders Posted on: 06/05/04 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
