Built to run on the company's quad-core Kal-El processor, it shows us the first example of true dynamic lighting on mobile devices and also throws in some ...
An allegedly leaked slide from an in-house Asus presentation appears to detail the specifications of AMD's forthcoming Bulldozer line-up of CPUs. The slide recently appeared on the ZOL forums, and has a number of figures erased from it, including the clock speeds.
