Last September, Intel announced the <a href="http://www.intel.com/idf/corechallenge.htm" target="_blank">Intel Core Processor Challenge</a> contest with a $1 million dollar bounty for PC designers and manufacturers worldwide to think beyond the traditional “big, beige box” computer designs. The contest aims to spur industry innovation in new home entertainment PC designs powered by the high performance, energy efficient Intel® Core™2 Duo processor along with Intel® Viiv™ technology. More than two dozen PC designs from 19 companies worldwide are vying over best style, acoustics, functionality and features. Entrants hail from eight countries. Ten semifinalists were chosen by Intel judges in March. In April, top designs will be selected by a group of computer and design experts, and winners are scheduled to be announced at the Intel Developer Forum in Beijing.
