The Japanese want to develop their own processor

The Japanese government has decided to federate the majority of its electronic industrialists in order to develop a new processor. Thus, huge groups such as Fujitsu, Toshiba, Panasonic, NEC, Hitachi Canon… will put in common their knowledge to make and will manufacture a Japanese made cpu in 2012. One does not know the specificities of this processor nor even if it will be X86 compatible, but it will have to be particularly energy saving and to consume 70% less than what currently exists.

It will be fitted in many offered products by these companies and will have to be able to function even in the event of a long period of power outage in the event of major natural disaster (Japan is in a highly seismic zone). 
One should find it in the majority of everyday products, television sets, mp3 players and the cameras.
