The CPU Redefined: AMD Torrenze and Intel CSI

janp writes "In the near future the Central Processing Unit (CPU) will not be as central anymore. AMD has announced the Torrenza platform that revives the concept of co-processors. Intel is also taking steps in this direction with the announcement of the CSI. With these technologies in the future we can put special chips (GPU's, APU's, etc. etc.) directly on the motherboard in a special socket. Hardware.Info has published a clear introduction to AMD Torrenza and Intel CSI and sneak peaks into the future of processors."

    Is there an address we can send money to get /. editors a basic grammar textbook? I'm no pro, but that's just ridiculous.

      Slashdot "editors" do not "edit" the submissions. According to CmdrTaco, this makes Slashdot "more real".
