There's a catch all right. It's called Foxton technology and
based on early technical disclosure from HP it is a comp-
letely new approach to manage design, manufacturing,
and power budget margining for CMOS chips in a single
unified and comprehensive fashion. IMO it could easily
become a major competitive advantage for Intel in high
end MPUs and eventually desktop chips too.


a variable frequency chip that shifts speed based on CPU load. I can see the benchmarks discussions now!
