To be more precise, Lincroft is the SoC chip, Whitney Point is the codename of the PC-compatible chipset, and Oak Trail is the codename for the entire platform.
Off-topic, but FYI I think Oak Trail basically is a PC-compatible chipset for Moorestown (the other chipset was not PC-compatible). It includes all the legacy stuff that is need to maintain compatibility back to the original IBM PC in 1981, and extensions such as ACPI, so most normal x86 OSes will run.
Sorry for sounding like it would always be no problem to to post this kind of comment. I know that it was not always feasible to post non-anonymously from long before I wrote this though, hence why I said "when I can". And yes I know, being rewarded for saying what they want to hear not the truth, a common problem.

Even in this case I'd post non-anonymously when I can. This kind of comment in particular sounds like it would be no problem to do so. But that is a different topic altogether
Oh, and I hope they will find a new CEO who actually understands how technology works. Mark was not much better than Carly - HP now hardly does any serious R&D (except for HP Labs which actually does pretty cool stuff), preferring to buy established companies.

You are not putting discrete GPUs at all on it, never mind fast ones.
What do you think NVIDIA ION 2 is?
This applies only to one chip, and that chip's codename is right in the title.
If Intel doesn't want a GPU on their platforms, it is trivial to abide by the letter of the law and still screw Nvidia
During the public comment period, I submitted a comment about this and the FTC actually responded:

Oops, replace Moorestown here with Lincroft.

I know, but I think Mark Hurd was worse. For example, he cut salaries, while Leo didn't from what I read.
Which begs the big question: Will things improve for HP employees?
Unless it is about Facebook.
And don't forget Hole196 too, allowing ARP poisoning over WPA(2).
This was a test, ignore.

Modded up, so resubmitting: http://slashdot.org/submission/1301830/Why-Modern-Business-Is-Bad-for-Your-Mental-Health
Hopefully next time the board of directors will not choose a sociopath as a CEO. But that is not the only problem:
http://slashdot.org/submission/1285008/Why-Modern-Business-Is-Bad-for-Your-Mental-Health
Should I resubmit this?
Does the Board of Directors really tell CEOs what to do? I never heard that claim before.
I did some quick research using Google and seems like Carly started the merger.

In fact, I have been saying that we should no longer default to MBAs like Carly for a while now.
What do you mean by HP board's roadmap?
IMO the problem is which kind of CEO the Board of Directors will seek as a replacement.

Agreed.

Yep the real solution is to explicitly define that money is not speech: http://convention.ideascale.com/a/dtd/Declare-that-money-is-not-speech/25747-7872
It isn't an actual real bankruptcy being done BTW, it was a General Assignment under state law being done. Not that changes the point.
