Pat Gelsinger, a senior vice president and co-general manager of Intel’s Digital Enterprise Group held a meeting with a number of journalists this week. The VP used this opportunity to present its predictions in regard to Intel’s future, making four assumptions that set Intel as part of every segment of computing. Gelsinger also presented four of Intel’s milestones which were: the introduction of 32-bit technology with the 386 microprocessor, the CISC-RISC debate, the shift to the multi-core technology and the power of compatibility with the so-called Intel Architecture. Gelsinger’s predictions were:

Intel has just posted the updated price list for its select quad-core processors. The new offerings are up to 50 percent cheaper, depending on the frequency clock and the market it addresses. More than that, Intel posted two
new processor models in the Celeron and Core 2 Duo families.

The updated list includes the Core 2 Quad Q6700 processor running at 2.66 GHz clock speeds. Pricing for the Q6700 fell from the initial $530 to a down-to-earth $266. The same price update also applies to the quad-core Xeon X3230 server chip, that fell from $530 to $266.
