Intel 官员表示，Pentium D 的 D 其实代表蠢驴（Donkey）的意思

在被问及 Yohan 与 Pentium D 的差异时，Intel 副总裁兼经理 Mooly Eden 答道，“你在问我微处理器和低能之间的差别。” :p

New Details on Intel's Dual-Core Mobile Chip

The processor's two cores will share a single bank of cache memory.

Intel shed a little more light on its forthcoming dual-core mobile chip today in a briefing with reporters, confirming that the Yonah processor's two cores will share a single bank of cache memory
       
Yonah is the code name for the dual-core version of Intel's Pentium M processor for notebooks and miniature desktops, scheduled for release in the first quarter of next year. Unlike Intel's first dual-core designs for desktop PCs, Yonah is a much more integrated design that shares storage and power management resources within the chip, said Mooly Eden, vice president and general manager of Intel's mobile platforms group.

The just-released dual-core Pentium D processor uses separate 1M-byte cache memory banks dedicated to each core. In the Yonah processor, a single 2M-byte cache memory bank is available to both cores, reducing the chance that data will have to leave the chip to be temporarily stored in a system's main memory bank, Eden said.

What's the Cache?

Cache memory is used to store frequently accessed bits of data in a repository close to the CPU (central processing unit). Data stored in cache memory can be accessed much faster than data stored in a PC's memory, because the CPU doesn't have to exit the processor to find that data.

As a result, the battery life of notebooks with the Yonah and the rest of the Napa platform should exceed that of the current generation of Intel's Centrino technology, Eden said. Napa is the code name for the combination of Yonah, a new mobile chipset, and a new wireless chip that makes up the Centrino brand.

Intel plans to aggressively introduce dual-core processors over the next year. The company was forced to accelerate its dual-core processors after realizing that it could no longer wring any more performance out of single-core Pentium 4 chips without melting motherboards. Processor analysts and chip enthusiasts have turned their noses up at Intel's initial Pentium D design, labeling it inelegant compared to AMD's dual-core chips.

The difference between the dual-core Pentium D processor and Yonah is also quite stark, Eden said in response to a reporter's question.

"You are asking me what is the difference between a microprocessor and a donkey," he said.

　　对于有市场传闻称AMD计划开始生产芯片组，Henri Richard表示AMD是不会进入这一市场领域的，因为他们和各大芯片组厂商关系良好。此外，他还批评了Intel将各种产品（CPU、芯片组和无线模块）捆绑在一起的所谓平台战略。...

不知道是Intel实力过强还是看穿了A64的性能上界要么内部有人故意要废掉Prescott，在缓存延迟上倒是拖后腿的真正原因。PM和ia64上可以看出，Intel完全具备制造低延迟大容量cache的技术能力，但是Prescott根本不需要，什么原因？还是A64不够强或者目前并不需要让这个武器具备毁灭性而阻挡了PM派别(给Intel带来了巨大利润)抬头的势头。
意思的是：缓存延迟才是Prescott的主要问题，并不是什么流水线太长。

缓存延迟还不好解决？就算研发团队的人傻，或者故意，难道技术出生的贝瑞特也是傻子么？

呵呵，楼主的D代表什么意识？
