[SapiensBryan Blog - The Latest Tech Breaking News Blog.] The Professional Business Platform (945G) is aimed at IT administrators and introduces Intel’s Active Management Technology (AMT) that aids in monitoring, installation of security patches and remotely diagnosing hardware problems. The 945G chipset also enhances power management, reduces noise and packs in new networking features.

[Weblog.infoworld.com] InfoWorld: Intel unveils dual-core chips for home and office: A four-year ride up the clock speed ladder allowed Intel to reach new performance heights, but as the Pentium 4 surged past 3GHz, it became harder and harder to reach the next speed grade due to overheating. Likewise, there's only so much cache memory a chip maker can add before the processor becomes too large to be manufactured efficiently. Building two processor cores on to a single chip will allow Intel to increase performance without having to worry about melting the inside of a PC chassis.
[Weblog.infoworld.com] InfoWorld TechWatch: PCM is a new technology that stores data by changing the state of a special material from an amorphous to a crystalline structure, rather than storing data as an electrical charge. While in its early stages, the technology shows potential for high speed, high density storage of data, while retaining data even when power is turned off, the companies said in a statement. Such attributes could be beneficial in applications ranging from high performance servers to consumer electronics.
[Weblog.infoworld.com] Intel rolls out Pentium D, new chipsets with partners | InfoWorld ...: The launch of the 945G chipset also brings several new technologies, such as virtualization, system management and high-definition audio to both consumer and business users. Intel on Thursday launched the Professional Business Platform with its Pentium 4 600 series processors, the 945G and 945P chipsets, and the Intel Pro/1000 Network Adapter as its first desktop platform modeled on the success of its Centrino notebook PC platform. The 945G chipset features integrated graphics, while the 945P chipset is designed for use with a third-party graphics card.
[Xbitlabs.com] X-bit labs - Hardware news - Intel Finalizes Remote Active ...: The main issue iAMT solves is remote management of systems that are physically away from an IT manager without sacrificing the number of operations that can be performed. Thanks to iAMT system administrators will be able to remotely set up new computers, download software updates, perform asset inventories and find and fix many problems even when target systems are turned off, the operating system has locked up or the hard drive has failed. This allows enterprises to save time and cost of technical support of computers without employing a costly proprietary management system.
[Xbitlabs.com] X-bit labs - Hardware news - Intel Gears Up for Business Desktop ...: Several top-tier system manufacturers are projected to release computers that comply with the PBP platform guidelines, which is a testament of support of Intel’s initiatives by computer makers and may be an early indication of Intel’s growing influence on the market of computer platforms. Still, it is likely to take some time before the Professional Business Platform will receive an acknowledgement of the industry, as a lot of buyers may still be more concerned about pricing of a system, not its feature-set even when it is directly associated with lower cost of ownership.
