in demands on PC hardware. Our tests show that efficient work is basically impossible on anything less than a system equipped with a dual-core processor. Even though a system based on a "fast" Pentium 4 running at 3.2 GHz with HyperThreading may be more than...

Thanks to its hyperthreading capabilities, the desktop CPU in the mini PC has a head start on the notebook CPU, which does not support hyperthreading (HT). If you deactivate HT in the BIOS of the mini PC, you can see that this performance boost does not come...

website says they'll release "beta software for Windows 98SE and Macintosh OS X at the end of September (2003)" but there's no mention of support for Linux or other OSes. The other "gotchas" - also listed in the FAQ - are that "there is an issue with Hyperthreading...

This feature lets the processor adapt its frequency (up to 2.8 GHz) to the application you’re running. For certain applications (like video encoding), the Core i7 720QM uses all four of its cores (multiplied by two thanks to Hyper-Threading), while for other...

to open up a whole bunch of new opportunities.   Me: The Atom N270 going into all of these netbooks looks like an underpowered Celeron M on paper.   Intel: Actually, it’s based on a totally new, hyper-efficient architecture...including Hyper-Threading....

that will be available in the production J4 3.06 GHz version. This will include a 125 Watt power supply, 3.06 GHz Pentium 4 with HyperThreading, 333 MHz DDR SDRAM and ATI's next GPU - code named 'M10' - for performance even more awe-inspiring than the ATI Mobility...
