Intel is set to release a new Atom CPU in time for the release of Windows 8. Codenamed “Cloverview” along with the Clover Trail platform, it is a 32nm processor aimed at competing with the ARM processors that Windows is now supporting. As usual, innovation by software helps make the hardware vendors innovate and advance! It’s a game of leap frog!

Intel executives see the combination of Intel’s Clover Trail platform and "Cloverview" processor with Windows 8 as a strong entrant in the burgeoning tablet space and a big player in netbooks and other devices, according to a report on the Website This Is My Next.
