HP is to start making servers using energy-efficient ARM-based chips, but experts warn of incompatible software.

Computer maker IBM is working with a glue specialist to create computers built from 'sandwiches' of chips

These new chips, the researchers say, could make processors that are more powerful and more efficient than today’s computers—and better at the flexible learning and responses that are a struggle for current AI systems but a breeze for the human brain.

Lilliputing: "We already knew that Zacate chips would provide more processing power and significantly better graphics performance than Intel's Atom chips… now we have a better idea of just how much more."

The H Open: "The AMD and Intel graphics drivers now support a wider range of chips and make better use of power saving features on the older chips."

What stood out at CTIA were some high-end new mobile phones that take the operating systems and the new chips to create some very interesting new devices.

The H Open: "Linux 2.6.33 will have new and improved drivers for Wi-Fi chips by Intel, Ralink and Realtek.

Several drivers for old Wi-Fi hardware have been moved to the staging area and will probably soon be discarded."
