» If AMD is David and Intel is Goliath, What is VIA? Cinderella? | Between the Lines | ZDNet.com: "Kowal, a native of Canada now living in Taiwan where VIA is headquartered, is touring the US to talk about the latest addition to VIA's processor lineup — the C7-M. The 'M' stands for mobile and, according to VIA, this processor is, watt-for-watt, the most powerful processor on the market (although it could be true, I can't verify this since no systems are shipping yet). What's so special about the C7-M? It's a 2 GHz x86-compatible processor that, according to Kowal, not only takes only 20 watts of power (Intel's latest Pentium M takes 27 and AMD's most advanced Turion, which is 64-bit capable, takes 25) but also has a built-in security co-processor that can perform AES encryption on data being transmitted across the network or stored locally on the hard drive in real time."
