Platform conference coverage: watch.impress.co.jp

Clawhammer to have 256 or 512K of L2, Sledgehammer 1 MB or 2 MB.

PS: It must be that the budgets of the web publishing guys are way down. The only reporting from platform conference comes from Japanese journalists.

"Specific terms of the 10-year agreement remain undisclosed."
