INTEL RELEASED SEVERAL new processors and a new chipset for notebook computers Tuesday, making them immediately available in systems two days after Intel lowered prices on its Mobile Pentium 4 processors.
The 2.4GHz Mobile Pentium 4 Processor-M is available Tuesday morning in notebook machines from Gateway and Dell Computer, based on information obtained from the companies' Web sites. Intel also added two new Ultra Low Voltage Mobile Pentium III processors, and three varieties of Mobile Celeron processors to its roster of products, it said in a release. The new Intel 852GM chipset for notebooks comes with integrated graphics and support for USB (universal serial bus) 2.0 ports.
It's tough to find signs of growth in the PC industry, but notebooks are a bright spot. Sales of notebooks grew between 10 percent and 15 percent during the recent holiday selling season, and steady growth should continue throughout 2003, said Stephen Baker, director of research at NPD Techworld in Reston, Va.
Intel is poised to capitalize on that trend with its new mobile processors, and will also launch its Centrino platform for notebooks in the first half of this year. Centrino combines a new processor built specifically for a mobile environment with wireless Internet chips based on the 802.11b standard.

OWASP's list includes:
Invalidated parameters Information from web requests is not validated before being used by a web application. Attackers can use these flaws to attack backside components through a web application.
Broken access control Restrictions on what authenticated users are allowed to do are not properly enforced.
Broken account and session management Account credentials and session tokens are not properly protected.
Cross-site scripting flaws The web application can be used as a mechanism to transport an attack to an end user's browser.
Buffer overflows Web application components in some languages that do not properly validate input can be crashed and, in some cases, used to take control of a process.
Command injection flaws Web applications pass parameters when they access external systems or the local operating system. If an attacker can embed malicious commands in these parameters the external system may execute them on behalf of the web application.
Error handling problems Error conditions that occur during normal operation are not handled properly.
Insecure use of cryptography Cryptography has proved difficult to code properly, which frequently results in weak protection.
Remote administration flaws If web-based administrative functions are not carefully protected an attacker can gain full access to all aspects of a site.
Web and application server misconfiguration Servers have many configuration options that affect security and are not secure out of the box.
