Intel Robson officially called Turbo Memory

Darksaber · Apr 9, 2007

Intel has given the official name "Turbo Memory" to the flash memory addon to future notebooks. The technology, called Robson in the past, works as a cache to speed up every day tasks and booting of computer. A recent video shows a Turbo Memory enabled laptop finishing a series of tasks in just under 100 seconds while an identical notebook without the flash memory takes much longer to do the same task.

Turbo memory, surely they can think of a better, catchier name than that.

Turbo Memory is used in Graphics cards arent they? Doesnt ATI or Nvidia have something like that on their graphics cards?
