Intel's upcoming Sandy Bridge processors have a new feature that the chip giant is calling Anti-Theft 3.0. The processor can be disabled even if the computer has no Internet connection or isn't even turned on, over a 3G network. With Intel anti-theft technology built into Sandy Bridge, David Allen, director of distribution sales at Intel North America, told  ITBusiness  that users have the option to set up their processor so that if their computer is lost or stolen, it can be shut down remotely. For those who want to protect their computers from thieves, the ability to remotely disable them sounds great. But disabling a CPU might discourage a few thieves but those technically literate criminals might not be bothered. For e.g, Most cyber criminals are after the data not the hardware itself. So if the owner disables the CPU the hard disk will still be usable & no one can stop them from accessing the hard disk from other computer. Plus the question is how...

Though Intel already has taken a lead with the release of their 'Clarkdale' Core i3 and Core i5 processors, AMD said that they won't be trailing too far behind in showing the world their version of CPU-GPU combo processors - named Fusion. Unlike Intel's solution, Fusion promises not to be a MCM (Multi-Chip Module) i.e. where multiple chips are actually sandwiched together to form a single processor; and instead, the Fusion will be based all on a single die. Intel's Clarkdale combines a 32nm processor along with a 45nm graphics controller with a memory interface, making the CPU-GPU solution. AMD Fusion is being manufactured using the 32nm fabrication process; and while reporting on its development, officials say production is going ahead promisingly fast, ensuring that the Fusion processor will be ready for shipping within this year. The CPU-GPU combo processors promise to unleash a new dimension in day-to-day computing, reducing the form factor, price and cir...
