Noting the transformation now underway in entertainment, Otellini
introduced the company's new home platform -- Intel(R) Viiv(TM)
technology -- and several commitments from top U.S. and international
entertainment companies including AOL, DIRECTV, NBC Universal, Turner
Broadcasting's GameTap, ESPN, Televisa and Eros. ClickStar announced
its first feature film, "10 Items or Less," with a plan for an
Internet premiere within weeks of its theatrical release, an industry
first. These and other developments will bring millions of songs,
movies, programs and games to the PC in 2006.

Intel Viiv technology-based entertainment PCs will help make it easier
for families to download, store, view, manage and share all kinds of
digital entertainment and information on a choice of TV, PC, laptop
and hand-held viewing screens.

Intel(R) Centrino(R) Duo mobile technology improves performance and
battery life for the fast-growing wireless laptop market segment.
Otellini also introduced the ground-breaking Intel(R) Core(TM) Duo
processor -- powerful dual core silicon supporting the Intel Centrino
Duo and certain Intel Viiv technology models. The processor is well
equipped to deliver performance-per-watt efficiency and sleek designs
for entertainment PCs, notebooks and CE-like devices.
