Reputation: 2417   Rep Power: 61 |  ED#99 : Intel Brands The Nehalem! After years of using the codename Nehalem, the new-generation Intel processor finally has an official name - the Intel Core i7 processor! Like previous Intel Core processors, the new processor family will also feature Extreme Edition versions of the processor.  Link : ED#99 : Intel Brands The Nehalem!

Reputation: 98 Rep Power: 2 | Since the greater majority of people assosiate core2 with having 2 cores (yea I know it's stupid), they had to come up with something other than core3. Well core i8 would have at least have some meaning (8 threads).

Reputation: 1187 Rep Power: 19 | WHere's the 7 coming from?  And where's the 'i' coming from too? Maybe the '7' means that 0-7, which means total of '8', since I heard that they use HT (4x2?)
