Varun over at CTZ takes an in-depth look at Intel's roadmap, & what it will mean for the upcoming chips from Chipzilla.

"The new generation processors are said to be an amalgamation of its erstwhile P4 (Netburst architecture) and the Pentium M (Banias) processors. The idea is that more and more users are getting energy conscious and will want processors that are more efficient, but they would not want to compromise on the performance aspect of it. Thus, Intel’s focus at IDF was not just performance but performance/watt."
