This is a liveblog of the day 2 keynote at Intel Developer Forum (IDF) 2013 in San Francisco. Eul takes the stage; he’s the VP and General Manager of the Mobile and Communications Group at Intel. Bay Trail is a mobile computing experience reference architecture. It appears it’s running some flavor of Windows.

Jason Messer has an article describing how networking works with Windows containers. This is something I’ve been watching for a couple of years, since attending my first Intel Developer Forum (IDF). Intel clearly has its sights set on expanding beyond just “servers” into many more platforms, including network hardware platforms.

Spending this much gets you AMD’s fast and efficient 7nm Ryzen 7 4800H based on the Zen 2 architecture, along with the Radeon RX 5600M graphics chip. The 4800H is a 45W processor that rivals Intel’s Core i7-10875H with base clock and boost speeds, and also for having eight cores and 16 threads.

Jointly authored by VMware, Microsoft, Red Hat, and Intel, this new protocol proposal attempts to bring together the strengths of the various network virtualization encapsulation protocols out there today (VXLAN, STT, NVGRE). Via Kevin Houston, you can get more details on the Intel E7 v2 and new blade servers based on the new CPU.

Coming into this review, I had a catalog of potential pitfalls that Apple could have fallen into when switching from an Intel chip to its own processor. On the outside, the new MacBook Air is nearly identical to the Intel-based one Apple released earlier this year. Unlike on Windows, Rosetta 2 isn’t really emulation but translation.

In those days, we were tackling terrible Android and BlackBerry tablets, evaluating the first wave of Intel ultrabooks , and heaping praise on the then-revolutionary Galaxy Nexus. The hardware, while nice looking, was underpowered; the lighter, more portable version of Windows half-baked. In 2012, Windows Phone needed a big win.
