2006 will be remembered as a mile-stone year during which we saw some real breakthroughs and never seen before wonders of Information Technology including Dual Core Processing, 64-bit Computing, New hardware architectures, Massive adoption to Wireless, and All new displays. But it seems like only a beginning; a first step towards something out-of-imagination.
In 2007, Wide-scale roll-out of quad-core CPU platforms by Intel and Advanced Micro Devices; coupled with multi-threaded applications designed to tap the technology's powerful parallelism would likely to vanish-out the old computing experience.
Meanwhile, manufacturers including Asus, Fujitsu, Samsung and SanDisk will continue to work on flash-memory-based, hard-disk applications. Flash memory's efficiency could also increase laptop battery life and shave time off the "very agonizing seconds" that pass as PCs awake from hibernation mode.
