The execution, the fact that Paul, and Pat before me, and I
talked about all these wonderful products. We just launched
mini-microprocessor chip set. It's not the result of just best
effort; it was a well-planned, conscious effort that we have
[painted] to go together and develop what we call the tick-tock
model. You start with a new technology, you put the best team
on it, you get it done. You then compact it to the next process
technology, while in parallel our second tock team, really
developing the next microarchitecture. And go on and go on.
This is the Intel development engine that is going to continue to
deliver to the future better, improved, low-power products. And
Paul promised 300 percent improvement of power performance
in four years. I'm an engineer, so I'll say 4x of power
performance in four years. This is great.
So we have looked at 25 years of history of the PC, 25 years of
mobile PC history, and we are reshaping and reshaping and
reshaping again and again this mobile computing. And it's here
to continue to grow, continue to flourish, continue to deliver new
capabilities, and therefore building new services around this one
to be able to really create things that are going to be good for us
and for you. So I want to end up this discussion and thank you
very much for listening to this afternoon talk. Thank you.
