>>> Constant Computing, "It's being always connected. This concept of access to everything, in real time, is what we at Intel call 'constant computing,'" he, (Otellini), said.

That includes applications and processes that run in the background, such as virus checking and encryption, as well as the
constant connection implied by increasing Internet usage."

My phone company and ISP will love that! :-( <<<

Sure, they'll love you. And when you get cable modems at 40$/month the cable co. will love you.

Let's see Intel gets maybe 400$ for the cpu in a PC. The cable company gets 480$/year. If PC user supgrade every 2 years or so who makes more money? Content and bandwidth will be where the bucks are.

p.s. I'll be a son of a gun, but, that constant computing sure sounds like network computing. The network is the computer?
