I don't really like the name much. But it's still exciting news, I can't wait to see more info about nehalem.

... Who picked that name..... Doesn't make any sense. why?

It honestly doesn't matter what it's called. As long as it performs as promised, I couldn't care if it was called Dick Cheney.

damn straight.although,if it were a single-syllable word,then it would be easier for the idiots to understand instead of said,'i7'

I agree that the naming scheme is a little funky, and will most likely confuse the average joe when it comes to computers. But it does have a kind of awesomely futuristic way about it, Like it was out of iRobot or something. I don't really consider it to be in the same league as Apple's "i" scheme either though. I think it's cool, but werid- especially for Intel.

Apple's marketing team at work? The new Apple MacBook powered by iTel i7 processor.

Well, It does seem like intel is stealing the i naming scheme from apple but they aren't. Intel came out with the i386 and the i486 quite a while ago. That being said, I still think names that start with a little i are the worst.

Intel Core i7, ready for Windows Seven! ¬¬

Nehalem still sounds better.

Why not just core 3, just seems confusing.
