The Atom CPU is roughly the size of a grain of rice.
It’s reached the point where our computer tools have become very trusted components in our daily lives, even reaching advisor status in many ways. I spend all day working in front of a monitor typing away at one project or another and have noticed how computing resources have slowly grown into places we would have never suspected. Working on the Atom projects we’re continuing the trend of taking CPU’s into smaller places and working to solve problems we never considered computer assistance with years ago. With the Atom processor as small as a grain of rice there’s so much processing power there it’s incredible.
My Chevy Tahoe has 14 computers to help it work safely. It is a few years old so that has probably gone up in newer models with computer entertainment centers too. They are isolated sub-systems to keep them from having any bottlenecks. It would be a serious problem if your anti-lock brakes failed to work when you needed them due to the MP3 song playing at the time!
When backpacking (generally considered an off-the-grid activity) last summer we had several items requiring power to not only help us on the trip (GPS and cell-phone) but also music players to entertain as you made the hikes. Add to that possible computers in your shoes to track you, pace you and train you; with possible links to your watch and we’re really marching to a different tune now!
I pay my bills online and setup warnings to keep me in tune with my finances; I consider that portion of the household management an advisor role. On weekends when I focus on outdoor activities and family life I still have the need to get online a few times to check up on transactions and other issues all of which are managed online now.
With so much of my life being managed through my connections and portable devices, I want the best I can in my hands and enjoy knowing that new devices and products are moving to Intel and the trusted Atom processor to help fill these needs.
