Interview With Intel’s Pat Gelsinger

Intel’s Pat Gelsinger, in London for a conference on power management in data centers, sat down with the folks from C|Net for a little interview action today. Among the nuggets of info Gelsinger offered up during the interview is Intel’s plans to move upcoming Xeons and Itaniums to a common platform.

So going forward, the circuit techniques, the power-management technologies, all those sorts of things are much better leveraged. The first realization of that is Tukwila (quad-core Itanium) in late 2008, the next step in the product family, where we move to common system architecture elements, as well as full alignment on design tools and process.
