Intel Roadmap for
Multi-Core Processors
Intel is deploying multi-core processors across key product
lines as a pivotal piece of its platform focus. Production of
dual-core products for mobile, desktop and server platforms
is scheduled to begin in 2005.
The first Intel dual-core processor for desktop platforms,
code-named “Smithfield” and based on 90-nm process
technology, is slated to debut in 2005. Intel plans to deliver a
dual-core desktop processor based on its 65-nm process
technology in 2006.
Initial plans for the server arena include shipping a dual-core
Intel® Itanium® processor, codenamed “Montecito” and
based on 90-nm process technology, in the second half of
2005. In addition to its dual-core design, the next-generation
“Montecito” chip will boast more than 1.7 billion transistors
and a 24-MB cache. In the first quarter of 2006, Intel intends to
deliver two optimized 64-bit Intel® XeonTM dual-core processors
designed for dual-processor and multi-processor platforms.
Intel expects to begin revenue shipments of its first mobile
dual-core processor, code-named “Yonah,” in 2005 and go
into volume production in 2006. Based on a mobile-optimized
microarchitecture and 65-nm process technology, “Yonah” is
designed to provide power-management capabilities and
enhanced performance for multiple demanding applications and
multi-threaded applications.
Further on the horizon, Intel plans to deliver additional
processors with two or more cores for mobile, desktop and
server platforms. At present, the company has many dual-core
and multi-core designs in development.
Intel recognizes that the need for platforms with the right type
of compute power and performance will continue to escalate
over time. Fifteen years hence, the capabilities that users
expect of PCs are certain to change as dramatically as they
have in the past 15 years. The evolution is likely to include
magnitudes-better recognition applications and search
functions that enable seamless mining of information and
support knowledgeable, data-based decision-making.
As these and other emerging consumer and business usage
models become mainstream, they will require increasingly
more compute power. A comprehensive threading strategy
that advances the platform through HT Technology, dual-core
processors and eventually multi-core processors-is crucial
to delivering this power. Going forward, Intel will continue to
focus its research, development and marketing efforts on
technologies that help make the balanced platform a reality,
thereby delivering benefits to users in all market segments.

I hope this means that we seen new pb updates before paris.
 
Thats the new intel notebook processor, That is what everyone is hoping will appear in the new Powerbooks that come along in a year or so's time when the intel transition starts gathering steam.
