Paul E. Intel stresses imaging, low cost PC's.

Interesting that the author believes Intel will maintain Pentium into 1999 to target set-top boxes

Paul, Re:Peck said something about Intel that was not entirely derogatory. Maybe he was misquoted.>>

But he did say at the end of the article that this is going to cost Intel some money in terms of more R&D etc. I think he was trying to put some negative spin for the benefit of wall street.

Paul, a little different take on this reorganization in Intel. Article...Is it really all about the Digital Photographic industry?

I recently read a different article which described sales of digital camera's increasing over 150%. Intel may be focusing it's teams to become the brains of these future, "Kodak moments".

An interesting report on the limitations of Rambus DRAM and the real reason for Intel support of Rambus technology
techstocks.com
Says that Rambus is a higher speed interface superimposed on a DRAM core, and that it does nothing to speed up SRAM access time,offering only a faster path into the still slow DRAM core. Intel may be mainly interested in it because it wants to put pressure on DRAM makers in general to upgrade their products at a faster rate.
If what I interpret from this post is correct, no matter what happens, memory speed will continue to be a key factor holding back system performance.
