Mumbai, Jun 4, 2008
Sean Maloney, executive VP and GM (Sales and Marketing Group), Intel Corporation, at Computex 2008 in Taipei unveiled new chipsets, which make high-definition (HD) images on a computer desktop more realistic.
The new Intel 4 Series Chipsets will be used in mainstream desktop PCs powered by the latest 45nm Intel Core2 Duo and Intel Core2 Quad processors.
"The convergence of mobile computers, WiMAX wireless broadband, and powerful, HD-rich computer technologies point to a tremendous growth opportunity. Individuals - not households - will drive the next era of growth with people each owning one or more computing devices," Maloney said.
Intel's an integrated WiMAX/Wi-Fi solution, codenamed Echo Peak, will be available as an option for certain Intel Centrino 2 processor technology-based notebook PCs. The company aims to enable initial availability of certain WiMAX-enabled notebook PCs in the US later in the second half of 2008.
Maloney even expressed that ubiquitous wireless Internet access is required to mobilize how people are using the Internet today for things such as creating and watching videos, playing games and sharing photos. He said mobile WiMAX will make the Internet open, fast, and mobile and it's quickly progressing toward a healthy global footprint.
During the week of July 14 Intel will also introduce processors and some chipsets for its next-generation mobile PC platform called Intel Centrino 2 processor technology - formerly codenamed Montevina - for high-performance laptops.
