Intel's next-gen Centrino timed with Windows 7
InternetNews | at | by Mike
Intel plans to release its sixth generation of the popular mobile platform known as Centrino just in time for the October release of Windows 7.
The platform, codenamed "Calpella," will be the launch of Intel's Nehalem architecture on laptops.
An Intel spokesperson declined to comment, but a source familiar with the plans confirmed that Intel will have Calpella-based products in stores for Windows 7's launch on Oct. 22.
Intel tends to update the Centrino line about once a year. It introduced the previous generation, Montevina, last July.
