Viiv and vPro are performance exactly the way I expected.

Particularly for Viiv, won't that just mean people in retail stores asking "Hey why don't you have any of them Penternums?"

Why did they ever get rid of Pentium?

Any name that has "Core" in it sucks.

I think this renaming will help their ViiV brand and such. I remember being at Fry's and a few customers were asking what ViiV was, of course the Fry's guy gave some BS answer that was half right, that half being that it was associated with Intel.
