Last we’d heard of HP’s Project Moonshot, that effort to create low-energy servers was set to ride on the back of the Calxeda SoC. But for the rollout of its production-ready “Gemini” models, the company’s changed tack, replacing the previously annou…
We’re nearly halfway through 2012, but for NVIDIA, it seems the best is yet to come. The company’s GM, Mike Rayfield, announced today that 30 smartphones with Tegra 3 chips are now slated for availability this year, which is double the success that t…
It’s not every day that ST-Ericsson crosses our radar twice, but in addition to reportedly signing a deal with HTC for developing low-end handset chips, the company just announced its plans for a turnaround. The message? A heavier focus on SoCs for sm…
Although ARM-based SoCs are generally associated with mobile devices, it’s no secret that Qualcomm and NVIDIA want to get Windows 8 computers into the fray. We knew that both companies began seeding developers with prototype SoC-loaded computers back …
It’s little notches like these that could eventually carve out a big Intel-shaped niche in the mobile universe. What you’re looking at is a prototype chip codenamed ‘Rosepoint’ that somehow crams a digital WiFi radio and a dual-core Atom CPU onto the …
Well, if it looks real, sounds real and is halfway logical, we probably should distrust it all the more. Yes, it’s the time when all the rumors, photoshops and general hysteria around Apple’s next slab reaches its apex. The photo above was grabbed by…
