Re: "You are missing the point. Industries set specs based on economics. Embedded uses 125C because of the requirements for dirt cheap CPUs in automobile engines" Funny how you keep being wrong and yet others are missing the point. By no means are all embedded devices speced at 125C. Many are speced the same as desktop processors and some lower. I remember hearing about a ultra low power Timna processor for embedded applications that unfortunately never made it to market.... The PC market has not always used 90C. Re: "Intel is breaking the rules with 72C and 60W, and it is going to cause them serious problems competing vs. AMD, who is playing the game much more conservatively." While Intel is introducing sub 1W notebook processors, I find it rather funny to hear you saying Intel is going to have trouble competing because of power. EP
