But yeah, over at intel they actually have this little "tour" thing where you can go in and take a walk around and check out the latest things they're doing. Plus at the end they have a computer lab where you can actually surf the net. It's really cool. I've been there on a few school field trips back in the past. There's also a campus in Aloha, which is like 10 minutes away where they do all the processing and making the chips and what not, basically the peopel in the "rabbit" suits.
But yeah, I should go an get some pictures of the place for you guys some time. Maybe I'll just happen to get "lost" and "accidentlly" walk into their newst chip lineup and "accidentally" take a few Presler chips.
You mean the Bunny Suits? Haha... Oh yeah, if you accidentally take some, don't forget to send one or two to me.

The Presler core could really be called the current-generation Athlon X2 counterpart. Keep in mind that this new core, albiet using the 65nm process, is NOT Intel's next-generation lineup of cores. There's still the Conroe.
