A revolutionary new cpu?
Sounds promising, but will the lights dim and the temperature rise?

If the excellent work they've been doing on their server chips is anything to go by, I think you've got nothing to worry about in relation to Intel and the green agenda.

While I suspect the server versions would be GPU-free, I wouldn't be surprised if the on-chip GPU takes less power than the horribly antiquated on-board ATI chip in our servers at work, and actually has working drivers unlike those chips.
