Pentium (TM) Processor Trivia ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── If the Interconnects to the Pentium processor were made 1 yard wide (so a Human could walk through), then the chip would be about 10mi x 10mi, or twice the size of San Francisco. If the Pentium Processor was based on 1940's vacuum tube technology of the original ENIAC computer, the chip would be 121 square miles. The Pentium Processor has 3.1 million transistors. A stack of 3.1 Million pennies would be 3 miles high, and be worth $31,000. ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
