Early reports say the triple-core Phenom x3 is a Phenom x4 quad-core with one (non-working) core disabled. Is it going to be named Phenom X3?
Yahoo! Mash, that's the experimental social network service Yahoo! is testing in limited beta.
Tech writers say it apparently is designed to lure users away from rivals Facebook and MySpace.
New York Times blog calls it "The Social Network for Graffiti Lovers".
Apple. One week old, but you now know why iPhone is called iSorry.

Smart move. Intel will follow soon. Because it is obvious decision.
At the moment :
When one of the dual core processor fail the test, Intel market it as singer core processor by disable that particular core. You don't need to throw away the whole CPU and still earn cash from it.
So AMD 3 cores show little different, 1 out of 4 cores fail the stability test, why not market it as 3 cores processor?
