Intel to license HyperTransport

Inquirer | at | by Mike

Inside sources say that Intel may be forced to adopt HyperTransport for its own technology in the near future but oh god, how embarrassing it all is. HyperTransport, pushed hard by AMD and adopted wholesale now by a large number of hi-tech companies, got a knocking from the chip giant around the time of the August Intel Developer Forum but now it looks as though it will have to jump on this bandwagon too. The reason is not to use it with its X86 processor business.
