Intel demos 48-core "cloud" processor

Intel demos 48-core "cloud" processor: "Intel today gave a look at its long-term future by showing the Single-chip Cloud Computer (SCC).

The new model, however, is extremely efficient: it uses unspecified new energy management to consume no more than 125W at peak load and as little as 25W, even when all 48 cores are active...."
