We usually are giddy when new processors hit the test bench, no matter what manufacturer they come from, but this time it is a bit different. With Intel recently announcing that they are moving away from "GHz-oriented projects" and towards a multi-core solution, it makes getting excited about a few more MHz kind of tough. In fact, I guess if I am totally honest with myself, the rate of CPU scaling for the last couple of years has really been sort of boring.
