Along these lines, our seven Spanish will give us his impressions on how the market isnot only processors, but the devices that are that are just about everyone. How is the relationship with Apple? Will they the tablet with the existence of the netbook? All thesequestions and some more then.
Engadget: What will involve the integration of the new transistors in 3D?
Spanish Intel: The biggest difference is the consumption of electricity. 3D transistorsallows more current to pass by them, or to the continued performance with less power consumption. This will allow us great flexibility in creating high-performance processorson servers or to create smaller chips for mobile or tablets.
At Intel we have another law that says every two years leave a lot of articles saying that Moore's Law is about to touch the ceiling (laughs). We do not know how things will be in 25 years, but we have very good ideas about how they will be within 15.Probably never have seen the future as clear as now.

I remember talking to Gordon Moore himself in 1996 when we were making the Pentium II and then and say, 'We do not know how to go from 2000'. We had many problems with the heat generated by processors and transistors were so small they almost had a porous quality. Power was slipping.
Actually, that was just the use of silicon is an incorrect approach. We continue to use that material at least another 25 years combined with other chemicals which alter or improve their properties.
Engadget: Each year the number of cores, and chips out new models obsolete three months ago Do not you think the market is presenting new products too fast?
Spanish Intel: But is that always going to be. The struggle now is not so much how to get more power but how to get that power to generate a better user experience. In fact, the computer you buy today is obsolete in six months. It occurs as with cars. I have a car eight years ago and of course there are better and more modern vehicles, but that does not mean that mine does not work just as well and continue to serve my purposes.
You have to keep in mind that companies are there to make money and the companies themselves are first interested in promoting a sense of chronic dissatisfaction with the user. The companies that are interested in a product the buyer wants to buy another within a month. Ultimately depends on you as consumers will not be carried away by the frenzy of the market. To send an e-mail do not need 80 cores.
Companies are there to make money are those companies interested in promoting the first sense of chronic dissatisfaction with the user.
Engadget: What does the future of computing?
Spanish Intel: Intelligence. The big problem is that computers today have no intelligence and to provide certain services in real time, it takes intelligence and therefore an unimaginable amount of computing. We need 100 times more computation to do what we do. Imagine the services that we offer in the future with 80 cores.
On that computer (says a team at the corner of the lab) are developing an application that is able to 'see' a football game for you and offer you a summary of the most important moves, or the players you want. Until now, to do that takes a person back. A computer from now on take days to process that information. If you think about it, the way we interact with technology is very primitive, clicking the mouse or by entering a letter by letter on a keyboard. In the future we should be able to relate technology with simple gestures and words naturally. Computing and computing power are there to support services that make technology smarter and easier to use for people.

If you think of transistors as neurons and how they are connected you will see that the multicore processors do not differ greatly from one brain. What happens is that a much more primitive level yet. We have a long way to go until computers are capable of thinking for themselves.
Engadget: What's your bet in terms of operating systems?
Spanish Intel: Depends what for. If we are talking about an Android phone or Meego would choose. For computers, Windows, Linux or OSX are good for different things.Actually benefits us that there are many operating systems. We all are well.
Engadget: Apple was rumored that he was testing other brands of processors on their computers How's your relationship with Apple?
Spanish Intel: Apple requires tremendous flexibility in their suppliers, has taught us many things and believe that Intel is far better company because of them. Have forced us to improve many processes and standards were more rigid than before.
We believe that Intel is now better company thanks to Apple.
I remember one of the first meetings with them. They were teaching shows compilers, which are now using in their systems. He spent the silent demonstration and finally we said, 'You do not have anyone that you design the GUI is not it? "They saw the capabilities of the tool but the interface was unfriendly. Apple has always been very careful about that.
The way of communicating Apple has always been a bit religious. Before leaders to Apple liked 'demonize' the other brands. When we take the Pentium II, Intel was Windows for them, we were 'Wintel' and even ridiculed by our processors in their advertising. Those were different times and now the story is very different. Apple buys us millions of chips, and if you want me to do a three millimeters smaller processor will do it because the volume of business makes it worthwhile
Gizmodo: What do you think of the tablet? Will they with netbook?
Spanish Intel: What you think of the tablet? I love my iPhone (laughs). The rise of tablets is a matter of fashion. It used to be wearing hats. Now they take caps.Although some adjustment involving tablet netbook market, they'll never replace them.
What do you think of the tablet? I love my iPhone (laughs).
In English there is a term called 'Share of wallet' which is the percentage of your money you spend on electronic devices. That amount of money has risen steadily in recent years and now have room for many more devices. Depends on type of use you are going to do. Returning again to the example of cars. Why brands designed 25 different car models and 7 of them off-road? People like to differentiate themselves and buy things that suit your tastes and needs.
For many years, companies tried to find a Holy Grail of technology, a device used for everything and did everything right. We now know that this device does not exist.
Engadget: What is the great workhorse of processors on today?
Spanish Intel: The great workhorse is to resolve all the elements of the equation trying to balance energy consumption, heat dissipation and price. Every time we have more source developers and that is because the boundary between hardware and software is becoming increasingly blurred.
We know what processors are going to have within five years. What we're trying to figure out is what will people be doing with those processors, for example, image or video manipulation. Trying to resolve these issues will allow us to optimize the performance of chips. Sometimes it really angry because after researching things that other companies sell. Five years before we had a technology Kinect seems to work with a webcam, but we do not sell video game accessories.
Gizmodo: What do you think Google's bid for Chromebook?
Spanish Intel: It is certainly the right direction but, today, the idea of Chromebook is limited by the connection problems. I love using technology in a mobile, but sometimes I lose the signal and then it's over. Connected computers in the cloud are the future, but need a more powerful infrastructure by network operators.
With these reflections on our visit ended Chromebook our boys at Intel. We want to thank their friendliness and willingness to answer when this marathon interview about two hours.
