Speaking at the company's annual Investor Day March 5, Otellini told analysts and reporters that the company is about to deliver whole new sets of products for four markets that he estimated are worth $10 billion each. Those markets are low-cost PCs, MIDs (mobile Internet devices), consumer electronics and the embedded systems space. The linchpin to all four of these markets is the company's soon-to-be released Silverthorne processor, which is based on Intel Architecture and the company's 45-nanometer manufacturing process.
