Before entering on the details about the architectural features
present on the Nehalem CPUs, let?s make a summary of the base elements
that are common to the many different versions: server, desktop and
notebook. It?s worth noticing how the new architecture engineering
process used by Intel aims at obtaining CPUs that can be used in all
three sectors, by simply slightly changing architecture and CPU
characteristics to better adapt to each of the sectors.

It's tragic that superb silicon processing and vicious business
tactics have made the horrid x86 mess the dominant processor.

It's a serious risk to national security, too.

You're a goddamned idiot with some of the crap you spew.

ALL hardware can be hacked, idiot.

My embedded systems can't.

Notice, however, that no military
gear of late ever has been. Compromised by spies, yes. But raw hack?
Absolutely not. Regardless of the platform, you sumbitch.

Are you really too stupid or lazy to use google? I fould this in a few
seconds:

and there's lots more.



The key to stopping hackers and thieves will be software.

If x86 had serious i/d space separation, and Microcrap used it, all
sorts of exploits would be impossible.

John

Idiot. hacking into a web site, and hacking military comm channels are
two entirely different animals.

As far as the platform goes, Linux is doing a pretty good job of
isolation the would be hacks from the core operating infrastructure of
the machine.

x86 is fine, albeit unorthodox by the standard in many circles.

Again, the key will be in the software. Proof? General Instrument
"includes" several "false keys" in the transport streams in the newer
Digicipher II system. It has never been hacked, and it is 15 years old.
The VideoCipher system had a chip vendor selling the chips out the back
door at night in bigger numbers than those he piped out the front door
legit during the day. A LOT of folks had receivers that would simply tune
all channels for the basic rate, or even free.

The reason the Digicipher system is so strong? Software. The false keys
alone throws 'em off so long they give up.

There are Cell, Intel, AMD hybrid systems in the channel already, and
more will be coming down the pipe soon enough. I can already put more
power on my desktop than the original Cray had pretty damned cheap, by
comparison. The x86 will continue in development, and will end up
controlling the other system processors in the hybrid, among other tasks.

It has worked pretty damned good for entire segments of entire
industries for entire decades. Otherwise, we would not have had such a
prosperous last 3 decades.

Next.
