CeBIT: Intel, AMD and Genie
William Henning - Thursday, March 6th, 2008 | 1:21PM (PST)


Here are some news tidbits from CeBIT

CeBIT: Intel, AMD and Genie Image 1

The Register reports that Intel will start to ship Harpertown low voltage processors in the next few weeeks. The 32nm followup, Westmere, is due to appear in 2009, and Sandy Bridge is due in 2010. The server Harpertown parts will have a 50W TDP. The six core Dunnington server processor should appear in the second half of the year; it will also be a 45nm part.

The Inquirer has some shots of AMD's 45nm Shanghai based server demo box - how does a four socket 2U server strike you? It was pretty impressive to see sixteen processor performance charts on one screen; however the processor frequency was not shown. Each processor had 4x64KB data and 4x64KB code L1 caches, 4x512KB L2 caches, and one shared 6MB L3 cache.

GeCube, normally known for making graphics cards, is introducing an EEPC competitor called "Genie PC". What's unique about the Genie is that the 7" 800x480 screen is detachable, and while it is not a touch screen, there is apparently a track pad on its back. I hope they upgrade it to a touch screen! Apparently the Genie will sport 128MB/256MB RAM, and one or two GB of flash. It will run an unspecified embedded Linux system. (update: GizMoDo has some pics)
