To All: The Camino (820) chipset should be formally announced at the upcoming Intel Developer Forum (IDF) Fall'99 August 31 - September 2, 1999 at Palm Springs. IMHO this is Rambus Christmas. From Intel's site: developer.intel.com Advancing The Internet Welcome to IDF, the industry's number-one source for PC technologies, tools and training. It's all here: the Internet and the Future of the PC, ease of use, using Intel's next-generation chipsets, Intel® StrongARM® processors for applied computing, new building blocks for communications and IA-64. developer.intel.com List of Sessions Intel® Next-Generation Chipset for the Performance Desktop The next-generation chipset delivers a huge increase in chipset performance. This increases application runtimes by providing both higher sustained throughput and lower latency. This talk will first demonstrate a new tool enabling OEMs to measure true chipset concurrent performance - so they can see the next-generation chipset performance advantage for themselves. The talk will then show platform measurements for real applications - showing that some apps use the extra performance of the next-generation chipset now and that the next-generation chipset provides the headroom for more compelling apps in the future. The Next Generation Platform The desktop market is at the cusp of a revolution. Popular opinion is that the industry has started to see the "beginning of the end" of the PC era. There is no denying personal computing is starting to embrace devices such as screen phones, set-top boxes and PDAs. Personal computers will certainly not disappear, in fact they are evolving, adapting and focussing on increased power and functionality. The next couple years will see a variety of specific, high capacity desktop computers, which will embrace new broadband, speech and vision technologies. This course will support the developer.intel.com by providing technical information on a host of platform technologies to meet the near future challenges on the desktop frontier. Detailed information on a new power supply architecture, which reduces cost and physical size, but increases efficiency by 40%, will be discussed. This course will also provide information on a smaller Performance Chassis concept vehicle to house the next two Intel® performance processor generations. In the quest to continue to deliver better performance to personal computers, a new storage interface will be introduced which is designed to replace parallel-ATA in three years. This course will also insure key messages concerning USB2.0, IARA, IALA, and DAL initiatives are integrated for the hardware vendor. Maximizing Cost Effective Performance on CuMine Platforms The small/medium/large business professional has a vision -- be Internet centric, be scalable, be opportunistic and be accurate. The consumer has a vision -- be Internet connectable, be Internet scalable, be Internet fast, and be Internet secure. The number #1 device in the 20th century to meet these demands is the personal computer. The CuMine platforms will be a major impact to the Performance Desktop Market Share Segment upon its introduction in Q3 timeframe. This course will provide technical information on a new technology to route and manufacture a printed board to increase EMI suppression at a lower cost. The course will take a detailed look at the memory subsystem of an Intel® next-generation chipset / RDRAM performance platform and the thermal techniques for cooling the CuMine platform in standard ATX and microATX chassis developer.intel.com List of Sessions New Intel® Chipset Technologies The new Intel® chipset brings new technologies to the hardware platform, including AGP Pro, PCI 64, dual channel Rambus, and more. This course will cover these technologies and provide details on how developers can integrate them into their workstation platform. We now have a new name for this implementation - Dual Channel Rambus*. I like it!!! Regards, Jim
