Intel has released details on it's next platform which is targeted for portables and mini PCs (and Macs of course).
Currently known as Santa Rosa, it will use the new 965 series chipset. Its innovations are as follows:
- Support for memory busses up to 800 MHz (currently limited to 667)
- Replaces the GMA 950 with the GMA 3000
- Support for Robson technology, which will add a flash memory chip to the motherboard in order to accelerate access to information. Note that this technology could be doubled with the inclusion of flash memory directly in hard drives.
- Support for HDMI and UDI
- Support for the 802.11n Wi-Fi standard
This new platform is expected around March 2007, most likely just in time for a 3rd generation MacBook pro.
