It is hard to describe Intel’s release of the Core and Core2 series of processor as anything but a slam-dunk which has made the “blue” company the undisputed performance leader in the desktop segment. To further top it, with the migration to the P1266 45 nm process node including the Hafnium-based transistors, Intel has also set new standards with respect to power consumption. So, the bottom line is that Intel is currently the undisputed performance leader. One of the beauties, however, in the wonderful world of processors is that there is no standing still. The Red Queen rules and you have to run as fast as you can just to stay where you are.
