    An interesting and unusual meeting took place with Intel yesterday. Very important.

    I could not imagine that it would be so scary ...

    ... interesting) The
    cold autumn of 2009, Moscow, somewhere near the center. Restaurant BON, whose interior design was joined by the shocking hands of Philippe Starck.

    First thoughts - “it seems like I’ve gotten into the wrong place, something dark for meeting a company whose light colors on the site positively affect the psyche”) However, the realization of such a choice came pretty soon - Halloween is on the nose! Well, then at the very bull's eye, but still somehow somehow sycotic unusual)

    At the entrance to the hall where the whole event was to take place (the official name of which is “Meeting of the Club of Experts”), there were two slender angels (by the way, also employees of the company!) Who identified the visitors, giving out magic badges.

    By the way, not so many people were invited there (about 20 people), among whom were representatives of leading "trusted" IT sites and glossy publications. Oh yes, the mighty Habrahabr can be proud that squeezed in there as many as five people :)

    The reason for this closeness was information provided to the public, namely the company's roadmap for 2010, up to Q4. Unfortunately, I can’t provide any data, because the data is strictly confidential ... and even with one peek I will not let you look at the pictures taken from under the table) But with all the confidence I declare - there is VERY much interesting, innovative and promising! )

    Under the light of the projector, prominent people in the company spoke - Kamil Isaev (Intel Marketing Director) and Alexei Rogachkov (regional specialist in product introduction). Like other participants in the event, they were in thematic outfits .... Camille, for example, was in an elegant hat)

    First of all, the news relates to processor technologies - faster, more powerful, less ... New models are coming up with a 32-nanometer process technology, with interesting characteristics and capabilities. For example, such as the graphics built into the processor, which makes it easy to maneuver with high-definition video - I think this chic bonus will be appreciated by those who do not want to buy discrete graphics cards for their non-resource-intensive tasks. New chipsets in the face of H55 and H57 are also on the way .

    Many new technologies - TurboBoost alone is worth it! ) Still, software developers in this matter would not let us down ...
    For SSDs in the face of SSD is the near future and it pleases. In this matter, Intel is also preparing pleasant surprises, and for segments of the population with a very different level of income.

    A separate point pleases the company’s desire to "simplify" the situation with product names - now all the vibrant activity of marketers, as well as a huge assortment of products and technologists, can be "digested" unless really an avid IT person. In general ... do not hesitate to connect to the company’s blog and will be in the know! At least I’ll try to bring you up to date as soon as possible)

    Those present could ask any question on the topic of the meeting and receive a detailed answer to it from a specialist. Visitors to Habr also recently received such an opportunity and many took advantage of it. Yes, I’m talking about the recent “ 5 weeks with Intel ” campaign , which I conducted on the site, to feel and win valuable prizes in which anyone could.
    Those very same who could not tame their activity and curiosity yesterday also came to this event, where they were presented with their well-deserved gifts.

    Once again - well done!

    In addition to the narration of the company's plans, there was an unusual thematic cultural and entertainment program and something tasty - so as not to rumble in my stomach)

    Well, without free communication with company employees it could not do. As it turned out, they are all ordinary people, simple and sociable. It is they who make up the face of the company (at least in Russia) and anyone can make sure that this is not some kind of large "closed company", but just the opposite - a company whose doors are always open for everyone.

    The evening definitely turned out to be very pleasant and unusual - thanks to everyone, it was nice to see and meet. If anyone has any suggestions - write, we’ll think;)

    By the way, how did this twitter get in ?! )

    Good luck!
