TRANSMETA: Chip breakthrough challenges Intel

Transmeta, a Silicon Valley
start-up, will shortly announce a
breakthrough in microprocessor
technology that could dash the
hopes of Intel, the world's biggest
chipmaker, to dominate the
potentially huge market for
pocket-sized computers used to
access the internet.

The Financial Times has learned that Transmeta has
developed low-cost chips that are far smaller and
consume a fraction of the power of competing Intel
devices, yet are able to run standard personal computer
software. The low power consumption is critical, making
it possible to keep a mobile computer running all day on
a single battery charge.

MICROSOFT: Legal battle likely to continue

Bill Gates has played a decisive personal role in the
company's uncompromising stance towards its legal
opponents and the direction of the settlement talks with
the US government.

However, his decision to step down as chief executive is
hardly expected to lead to an immediate resolution of the
bitter, year-long antitrust battle.

Some antitrust experts, including consultants to the
company, argue his withdrawal from day-to-day
management might even delay any decisive moves by
the company to end the dispute.
