Intel's Portable Timna To Debut At 700MHz, (Part I)
News Timna's expected 2000 debut was delayed following Intel's 820 chip set Memory Translator Hub problems, which lead to an expensive recall of motherboards based on the 820. However, due to RDRAM's much higher cost and lower availability, when...

Intel's Portable Timna To Debut At 700MHz, (Part II)
News When combined with a hit from the Memory Protocol Translator, Timna systems, as opposed to discrete Celeron systems, should offer the same or slightly lower performance. The Hub link, used to communicate with external chips, will be 8-bits wide...
