The Software Chip

摘要

Upstart Transmeta's pioneering microprocessor chips are heralding a fundamental evolutionary step in the design of computing's core technology. What is it about transmeta ceo dave ditzel that makes you want to believe him? Maybe it's the way he unabashedly uses words like "cool" and "neat." Maybe it's because he had the audacity to build his upstart chip company within view of Intel headquarters. Maybe it's because he never completes a sentence, so enthusiastic is he about Crusoe, his company's brand of microprocessors.
