Nehalem based processors can ramp up the clock and bring it back down again all in between the ACPI polls an OS could manage. The only problem is doing all that work requires more transistors then it took to make the original pentium processor. It is also capable of switching clock speeds much faster then the OS.

There is a deposit due at the beginning of the lease period but this payment is generally quite small and totals only about one, two or three of the monthly payments in the lease period. The monthly payments involved in van leasing are also usually quite lower than those when purchasing a van. Not only does this save the individual or company leasing the van quite a bit of money but it can also make leasing a great opportunity for driving the van of the individual's choice for the short-term.

Unfortunate, but when you want to get to platform levels in the dozens of milliwatts range, ANY CPU utilization that happens while in idle will KILL the standby power. By the way, what you say about TI products existed since Pentium 4 based products almost a decade ago. Moorestown's power gating will just make it far lower than it was before. One reason phone uses so little idle power is because there's not much to power in the first place! That's why its so slow. That 50x reduction will NEVER happen in Windows.

Core i5/7 doesn't need complicated ACPI profiles and OS support to enable maximium performance and power savings. It is also capable of switching clock speeds much faster then the OS. Nehalem based processors can ramp up the clock and bring it back down again all in between the ACPI polls an OS could manage.

Now it's up to the software guys to provide decent drivers that use it to its maximum potential. Without the "soul" in software, no kind of device using the hardware can survive and conquer the market, no matter how sweet the design is. Having the same GPU across the line now should mean that Linux in general finally starts to function fully on Menlow-based devices as well! I wonder who they gave the job of developing those drivers to, as judging by what we've seen so far, there was no effort whatsoever from any party to get Poulsbo working on any Linux, as even Moblin was re-targeted just for netbooks that didn't use GMA500. :P Typos here and there: sneak peak -> sneak peek turning of -> off descreet -> discrete Moorestown is pretty exciting even without Windows support (for the time being).
