New Intel Trademark Filed

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?"

    Why do we do all of this Apple rumormongering? I mean, really, with all of these stories about Apple making the front page, you'd think Slashdot was totally astroturfing on Apple, and completely ignoring making ridiculous conjectures about companies like Intel... ...oh wait.
