Another Intel link intel.com Although Brilliant Digital started off developing world-leading compression technology before the Internet was a business reality, it turned out to be highly relevant to this emerging media. Kevin quickly saw the potential of the Internet as a distribution medium for their movies and the need for technical expertise to realise the full potential of their creation. Kevin decided to start at the top and work from there, sending an e-mail to Andy Grove, CEO of Intel, describing how their Multipath Movies were optimised for Intel's Pentium® II processor technology and requesting Intel's aid. To his great surprise Kevin received an email back the next day saying Intel was very interested and Andy set up a meeting. Intel works with leading software vendors around the globe to ensure there is a huge selection of applications available that take advantage of their latest technology. And to ensure PC users continually get a richer experience Intel gives software developers all the tools and support to take full advantage of all aspects of new processors and technologies (MMX™ technology instructions, AGP and improved floating point performance for example). The benefit to developers of working with Intel® architecture is it delivers excellent performance for all PC software and is engineered for full backward compatibility and scalability into next generation technology. The latest Pentium II processors extend processing power further by offering performance headroom for application, media, communication and Internet capabilities. Visit the Intel Developer relations group site for more tools and detail. On Intel's Asia Pacific Software Showcase site there is a list of applications that are optimised to take advantage of Intel® Pentium II processor capabilities, giving users a shopping list of applications they can enjoy on their new PC. To help Brilliant Digital develop and optimise their application, Intel also flew four top technicians out from the US for a month to work with Anthony Rose, Vice President of Technology, and his technical team. "We are working on the Kiss Multipath Musical Tour. Intel is keen to have more truly multimedia applications where kids start to use their PCs more effectively for CD quality music as well as video. We are already working with Intel on how to get the best from the next generation processors" said Mark Miller, Vice President of Brilliant Digital.
