Intel unveiled a power gate feature incorporating a "turbo" mode for its upcoming Nehalem family of processors. With the turbo mode, in a situation where not all the cores are necessary for a particular workload, the ones that are idle will be turned off and power is channeled to the cores that are active, making them more efficient. Intel also showcased the Nehalem-EX for the expandable server market, which consists of eight-core processors on a single die.

You think I am a MS freak?
that is hilarious since I used Vista, OS X, and Ubuntu at home.
I am not an MS apologist, I simply can't stand people spewing crap.
