Intel to change naming scheme... AGAIN

I found this article over at anandtech, it seems that Intel is changing their naming scheme once more, this time based primarily based on how much wattage each processor consumes. Sad to see the BMW naming scheme go, it was less than 18 months old (sarcasm). Too bad this one looks just as confusing, maybe even more so. Read on.

Less than 18 months ago Intel changed the way new CPUs would be named by replacing the clock rate with a three digit product name instead. We just got briefed on the newest wave of things to come at Intel. The new product naming scheme for some mobility processors will change to a five character alphanumeric product name based on the watt usage and general performance. All new Mobility product names will start with one of the following letters: E: TDP >50W T: TDP 25W to 49W L: TDP 15W to 24W U: TDP <14W
