Dual-Core Processors Coming to Notebooks in 2005

"Intel executives will spend part of this week at the Intel Developer Forum talking about Yonah, the company's first dual-core notebook chip, said Paul Otellini, president and chief operating officer at Intel, during a meeting with reporters here. Sources told IDG News Service in May that Intel is planning Yonah as the dual-core successor to the Pentium M processor. Otellini confirmed the code name for the project, but declined to provide any further details ahead of a keynote address by mobile executive Anand Chandrasekher scheduled for Wednesday."
Can you imagine a 2 Ghz P4 M processor with dual cores, hitting 4 Ghz of media-crunching power on a laptop? That would be seriously wicked. :twisted: I wonder though what power consumption will be like with these dual-core CPUs?
