  1. World’s Smallest Transistor (2nm in size)
  2. Intel reveals skinny Ivy Bridge ‘Ultrabooks,’ Moore’s Law-defying Atoms
  3. Intel Cloverview to hit at same time as Windows 8, Intel vs. ARM matchup coming
  4. ASRock reveals Socket AM3+ CPU details
  5. More on Intel’s Thin Mini-ITX Standard

Hardware specifications for the compact cloud are unspecified, but it looks to us like Intel has strapped together a pair of 1U servers, each with redundant power supplies and quad-ethernet network connectivity. Inside we’re guessing there’s a few hard-drives apiece, along with technologies like Intel’s “Intelligent Power Node Manager” to balance load across different units (and avoid overheating).

Obviously this isn’t something you’d likely buy yourself; the whole portability angle Intel is playing on isn’t really that much of a benefit in the real world, after all, as your easily-toted cloud server would also need a pretty sizable internet pipe wherever you decided to plug it in. For regular users, something pre-hosted and managed like Apple’s iCloud probably makes a whole lot more sense.
