Wii-mote's design was stolen?

Apparently, Hillcrest Laboratories in Maryland thought of the ingenious architectural masterpiece behind the Wii-mote before Nintendo did. However, almost two years later, news of their “stolen� creation hits the media. Interestingly enough, Nintendo-spokesman Yasuhiro Minagawa said that they have yet to be sued.

Inside Intel's Core i7 Processor, Nehalem

MojoKid writes "Intel's next-generation CPU microarchitecture, which was recently given the official processor family name of 'Core i7,' was one of the big topics of discussion at IDF. Intel claims that Nehalem represents its biggest platform architecture change to date. This might be true, but it is not a from-the-ground-up, completely new architecture either. Intel representatives disclosed that Nehalem 'shares a significant portion of the P6 gene pool,' does not include many new instructions, and has approximately the same length pipeline as Penryn.
