Intel to Launch 10W and 13W Ivy Bridge CPUs in 2013

Yeah I remember, you did call it

However, the ULV models do see mto often have lowly clocked IGPs, so they'll probably still have trouble competing with AMD's ULV APUs in IGP performance while generally winning in CPU performance.

I remember when the first Pentiums came out, and everyone was wondering how the laptop makers could possibly make a working laptop using a chip that consumed 19 W of power. Not to mention the fact that all of a sudden the CPUs in PCs started to need heat sinks. For me, it is simply amazing that they can make a 2-core HT Core i7 that runs at 2.4 GHz and has an HD 4000 iGPU... but uses substantially less power than that Pentium.

Yeah i guess...though...i haven't seen any benchmarks where they've been restricted to the same TDP...(i mean, I haven't, not to say they aren't any) so i'm interested to see how that plays out...

I've got a 2.4GHzP4 laptop, lol, and that P4 is an old desktop model. Some of the older laptops had very power-hungry CPUs paired with very good batteries and cooling (at least for the time) to compensate (at light usage, I'd get several hours out of the battery). They were very big and heavy suckers too...

Oh, there're also some laptops with full i7-3960X CPUs. Think about that, a 125W TDP CPU in a laptop!

Forget laptops, when can i get a dual lan board with the 7W CPU for my home server?

You'd have better chances of getting a board with a single Ethernet port and adding a low-profile PCIe card to it to get another.
