Intel® Atom™ Processor
Intel's smallest chip. Built with the world's smallest transistors¹.
"This is our smallest processor built with the world's smallest transistors. The Intel® Atom™ processor is based on an entirely new design, built for low power and designed specifically for a new wave of Mobile Internet Devices and simple, low-cost PC's. This small wonder is a fundamental new shift in design, small yet powerful enough to enable a big Internet experience on these new devices. We believe it will unleash new innovation across the industry."– Intel Executive Vice President Sean Maloney
As Intel's smallest and lowest power processor², the Intel® Atom™ processor enables the latest Mobile Internet Devices (MIDs), and another new category of devices for the internet called netbooks and nettops.
- Get a new range of power-efficient devices with excellent performance enabled by all new hafnium-infused 45nm high-k silicon technology
- Increase energy efficiency in smaller more compact designs with a thermal design power specification ranging from less than 1W to 2.5 watts for mobile devices
- Extend battery life in select devices with an incredibly low idle and average power allowing the device to stay powered on while also conserving energy
Based on an entirely new microarchitecture, the Intel® Atom™ processor was developed specifically for targeted performance and low power while maintaining full Intel® Core™ microarchitecture instruction set compatibility. Intel® Atom™ processors also feature multiple threads for better performance and increased system responsiveness.
Devices powered by Intel® Atom™ processors allow you to stay in touch on-the-go, connect to business and enjoy entertainment, remain connected affordably with a new series of MIDs, netbooks and nettops, and so much more.
NVIDIA Unveils World’s First Personal Supercomputer
The world’s first personal supercomputer, which is 250 times faster than the average PC, has been unveiled. The NVIDIA Tesla Personal Supercomputer is based on the revolutionary NVIDIA CUDA parallel computing architecture and powered by up to 960 parallel processing cores.
Until now, supercomputers were massive systems made up of thousands of machines taking up entire rooms, which cost millions of pounds to build and maintain. By contrast, Tesla personal supercomputers will cost between £4,000 and £8,000 and look much like an ordinary PC.
David Kirk, chief scientist at NVIDIA, the American company which has designed the new technology, said: “Pretty much anything that you do on your PC that takes a lot of time can be accelerated with this.”
“These supercomputers can improve the time it takes to process information by 1,000 times.
“If you imagine it takes a week to get a result [from running an experiment], you can only do it 52 times a year. If it takes you minutes, you can do it constantly, and learn just as much in a day.”
The new computers make innovative use of graphics processing units - a technological breakthrough, which the company claims could bring lightning speeds to the next generation of home computers.
Scientists also believe that the supercomputers could help them discover cures for diseases, such as cancer and malaria, much more quickly than using traditional research methods. We have already seen supercomputers that can perform laser surgery and desktop prototypes that are capable of computing speeds 100 times faster than current desktops, the technology is based on parallel processing on a single chip. This new release makes the supercomputing power easily accessible for the medical and other technical purposes.
Nokia Unveils N97 3G HSDPA Smart Phone
After Apple captured mobile phone market with iPhone, mobile phone manufactures are desperately trying to create an iPhone killer to recover lost market share.
Nokia unveiled N97 model smartphone to reclaim its lost share in the smart phone market, after iPhone entered the market.
Its features include:
- 3.5” Wide Screen (16:9)
- Touch-enhanced Symbian OS, S60 v5
- QWERTY Keyboard
- WiFi and HSDPA
- A-GPS
- 3.5 mm standard headphone jack.
- MicroSD slot.
- 5 Megapixel Camera with Carl Zeiss lens.
- 32GB onboard memory, expandable to 48 MB.
- VGA-quality video recording at 30fps
- Supports Flash Lite 3.0 and Flash Video
One good thing about N97 over iPhone is, N97 follows the mobile phone standards unlike iPhone.
The N97 is expected to be available worldwide in the first half of 2009 at an estimated price of 550 euros before tax or subsidies.

Winamp Media Player 5.541
Winamp is a free multimedia player made by Nullsoft. It supports numerous audio and video formats. It also plays streamed video and audio content, both live and recorded, authored worldwide. It has an extremely customizable media library, and allows you to rip and burn your favorite music CDs. Winamp has thousands of skins and plug-ins that allow you to change the look-and-feel of the player, as well as add new features. The player also has access to thousands of free songs, videos and online radio stations from SHOUTcast Radio and AOL Radio with XM.
Version 5.541 features better auto-detection of newer iPod models and includes other miscellaneous general tweaks, improvements, fixes and optimizations.
WinAmp 5.3 took some long-needed steps to improve the old-school media player, with support for AAC encoding, CD burning, and a robust file-management system. WinAmp 5.54 ups the ante with strong support for portable devices, including iPods, the ability to sync non-DRMed files to your PC from your device, an optional new interface layout and a built-in browser for media discovery.
We liked that clicking on an artist's name will get you related headlines and Web sites in a separate pane. There's also Podcast support, device synchronization that lets you tweak the sync list while in progress, and continued support for AOL's excellent Shoutcast. The new Bento layout is worth mentioning, too, because it gets the venerable llama away from the old modular format. The joined panes for the browser, media player, artist list, album list and more make WinAmp instantly more visually appealing. There's also an Auto-Tag feature, which will download metatags from the Gracenote database.
If you want MP3 encoding and full-speed CD burning, you have to shell out $19.95 for the Pro version. However, there are other problems. Automatic album art download support is spotty at best. More importantly, there are some stability issues when playing videos, and occasional program crashes were far more common than they should be.
WinAmp 5.54 is no iTunes killer--not yet. It has become, however, a strong alternative and should be of interest to those looking for something with more meat on its bones. Llama meat, that is.
