Transmeta Corporation (NASDAQ: TMTA) was a US-based corporation that licensed low power semiconductor intellectual property. Transmeta originally produced very long instruction word code morphing (microcoded) microprocessors, with a focus on reducing power consumption in electronic devices. It was founded in 1995 by Bob Cmelik, Dave Ditzel [3], Colin Hunter, Ed Kelly, Doug Laird, Malcolm Wing, and Greg Zyner. In January 2009, Transmeta was acquired by Novafora, which ceased operations in August 2009.

Transmeta has produced two x86-compatible CPU architectures: Crusoe and Efficeon. These CPUs have appeared in subnotebooks, blade servers, tablet PCs, a personal cluster computer, and a silent desktop, where low power consumption and heat dissipation are of primary importance.

Revenue for the third quarter of 2007 was $44 million, which included $43 million of services revenue and $1 million of license revenue for royalty payments.

意圖很明顯了...有很大可能想自己搞 X86 CPU

反正 intel 都斷了授權, 繼續跟他磨也沒意思, 直接自己幹 CPU 還比較快

再不然就是 VLIW

三國鼎立時代要來了嗎?
