TechWeb's Mo Krochmal spoke with Grove about Intel's strategy for visual computing. Q: What does this gift mean to Intel? A: I think there is a commonality of vision between the museum's view of culture being increasingly visual and Intel's view of where computing is heading, which is visual connected computers. As a mass medium, visual connected computers will do an immense job of projecting the contents of visual arts to a mass of people who never have a chance of spending any real time in a museum. So I think the content and the medium have a perfect match here. Q: How many years away is Intel's vision of visual connected computers? A: Depends on the quality expectations. The quality is here today because the Web is basically visual. But it is the Model T version of visual computing. With every turn of the technology screw, both in computing capabilities and network capabilities, the experience gets better and better. Q: You almost said the "B" word, bandwidth, something we're all waiting for. A: We at Intel are not waiting for it. What bandwidth limits, we are able to make up for by sending down portions of the information and reconstituting the total by computation at the computer at the end of the wire.
