Hardware, Embedded Systems P.A. Semi, a 150-employee chip startup, wants to make name for itself through attention to detail. The Silicon Valley chip startup, run by chip legend Dan Dobberpuhl-Dobberpuhl, its CEO, presided over the development of the Alpha processor while at Digital Equipment Corp. lifted its veil of secrecy Monday. The company will begin offering a new family of low-power, multicore, PowerPC architecture processors in 2006.

And yes, they've released a dual-core processor, but no, they still haven't reached the 3Ghz mark that was promised for, what is it now, 2 years ago?

Why do idiots keep bringing this up? 3GHz G5s was speculation from Jobs, not a promise from IBM.

Just to put it in perspective, Intel did promise 4GHz P4s... so where are they?
