Steve - Re: "They are dead, Jerry Sanders said so at AMD's CC. BTW, did'nt AMD and Transmeta sign some sort of "technology sharing" deal recently. Nothing like partnering up with a dead company. Way to go Jerry! "

Excellent point - I had forgotten that.

Yep AMD sure speaks the TRASH TALK against their partners !!

SK, Re: "They are dead, Jerry Sanders said so at AMD's CC. BTW, did'nt AMD and Transmeta sign some sort of "technology sharing" deal recently. Nothing like partnering up with a dead company."

If there's one good thing to come out of Transmeta, it's their code morphing software, which allows little loss in CPU cycles to translate x86 code into native VLIW instructions. I would think that the base behind this code could be used in very many applications where the speed of emulation, parsing text, or streaming data is very important. I'd like to see this code continue on if Transmeta happens to bite the dust.
