New Intel Trademark Filed

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the gross-conjecture-reigns dept.

jmanforever writes "Reuters is reporting that 'Intel Inside VIIV' and 'Intel VIIV' were filed as U.S. trademarks. The question is, what does VIIV mean? Could this be the Roman numerals for 6-4 indicating a 64-bit chip, or could this be the Roman numeral five twice, separated by two lines, indicating the dual cores of the Pentium 5 chip?"

    This is not true. The closest word to "veev" would be "ve", which means and.

    Also, Turkish words cannot have two identical vowels next to each other, going on what I remember about 4th Grade in a Turkish school.
