Marketers choosing a sensible name - news at 11.
Intel has named their new mobile processor and platform (formerly known as Silverthorne and Diamondville) the "Atom" and "Centrino Atom".
The Atom is made with Intel's 45nm Hi-k metal gate process, and information on the net suggests that it will run at 1.6GHz with 512KB of L2 cache, with a 4W thermal envelope.
