crusoe

Transmeta's Crusoe was the first processor to really take advantage of this, by varying the voltage and running slower to save battery life.

Partly that boyish dream of living the crusoe life style.

Shortly after publishing his paper, Dave Taylor went to work for Transmeta on the Crusoe processor and any research into Pinky processors faded out of existence.

This laptop (really one of the first netbooks) had an 800 Mhz Transmeta Crusoe processor and 256 MB of RAM (later upgraded to the maximum of 384).

The first generation Crusoe chip was a 128 bit part, and the second was 256 bit; this was a decade ago, in chips designed for ultra-light consumer laptops.

It certainly appeals to the Robinson Crusoe in me, but I'm not sure if it's actually useful, just because the level of compatibility is so low.

You may be misremembering the patent lawsuit Transmeta filed against Intel, long after the Pentium M had been released and Crusoe had failed commercially, basically as an alternative monetisation strategy.

I remember the Crusoe - it was ahead of its time, focusing on low heat and power consumption at a time when TDP meant nothing to the customers...

In the 19th century, Lucy Aikin, under the pen name Mary Godolphin, wrote Robinson Crusoe In Words Of One Syllable and a number of other classics for children using only monosyllabic words.

Previous human fiction and semi-fiction along the lines of vampires, mythology, religion, and even robinson crusoe epics always seems to really like the idea of human culture even if the protagonist spends most of its time separate.

One way is for people to rationally understand the benefits of living in a society as opposed to living as Robinson Crusoe individuals, and to be willing to accept restraints that are necessary parts of getting the benefits.

The Transmeta Crusoe was a particularly notable (if not particularly successful ) case in point, which brought that layer a little more visibility than most, although in all honestly, was probably mostly well-known for having been Linus Torvalds' employer.

In the mid-19th century, an author named Lucy Aikin (using the pen name Mary Godolphin) wrote a number of children's novels using words of just one syllable, including versions of "Robin Crusoe" and "Swiss Family Robinson".

Yep, applying his intimate knowledge of the 80386 PC architecture to the design of the Crusoe's external ISA.

Suppose you are stuck on a deserted island with no human contact, like Robinson Crusoe.

Ditzel eventually quit Sun and went on to found Transmeta and develop the Crusoe.
