Glossary:
dual-core — An Intel® technology in which two physical computational units exist inside a single processor package, thereby increasing computing efficiency and multi-tasking ability.
L1 cache — Primary cache stored inside the processor.
L2 cache — Secondary cache which can either be external to the processor or incorporated into the processor architecture.
FSB — front side bus — The data path and physical interface between the processor and RAM.
SDRAM — synchronous dynamic random-access memory — A type of DRAM that is synchronized with the optimal clock speed of the processor.
DDR SDRAM — double-data-rate SDRAM — A type of SDRAM that doubles the data burst cycle, improving system performance.
DDR2 SDRAM — double-data-rate 2 SDRAM — A type of DDR SDRAM that uses a 4-bit prefetch and other architectural changes to boost memory speed to over 400 MHz.
Tablet PC terms
Graphics Tablet:
It is a computer input device that allows one to hand-draw images and graphics, similar to the way one draws images with a pencil and paper.
Graphics tablet-screen hybrid:
It is a graphics tablet that incorporates an LCD into the tablet itself, allowing the user to draw directly on the display surface.
Tablet PC:
A Tablet PC is a laptop equipped with a touchscreen or graphics tablet/screen hybrid technology which allows the user to operate the computer with a stylus or a finget tip.
