PC-Welt: Transmeta unveiled: Patent for cheap CPU
PC-Welt writes:
The mysterious company Transmeta, having Linux developer Linus Thorvalds on their
payroll, has filed a patent for a processor emulating an Intel chip. As US news
service CNet reports, it is a combination of CPU and software behaving like a
X86 CPU. The software translates Pentium commands in a way that the chip can
parse them.
The Patent is available online.
