This is quite interesting I hope it will be available for consumer products.--74.36.255.119 14:43, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
This could be a solution for high performance gaming and video editing processing
Unfortunately it will be a long waiting game.--Existential Thinker 14:45, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
- The article now claims the KC256 started shipping in 2006.
- So no more waiting for that.
- What else can we say about consumer products, or the other chips, without crossing WP:NOT#CRYSTALBALL ? --76.209.28.72 13:28, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
Chip count
The article isn't clear as to whether this is 1024 or 1025 cores on a single chip, or if multiple closely-coupled chips are required. MarkMLl (talk) 11:13, 15 June 2008 (UTC)
Dead?
I did some research on the kilocore. Rapport Inc.'s website is offline, they have been removed from power.org and even IBM is not very communicative about the cooperation and the technology. I think, they went bankrupt.. Wallento (talk) 13:24, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
- Looks like Rapport and kilocore quietly disappeared. Could find no source beyond 2006/2007. See http://www.ibm.com/Search/?sn=23&q=kilocore&v=16&us=utf&lang=en&cc=us&Search=Search Superp (talk) 20:43, 21 September 2010 (UTC)
- There has been some news recently… seems like ibm is still working on something like that, but Rapport wasn't mentioned. http://gizmodo.com/new-kilocore-chip-is-the-worlds-first-with-1-000-proc-1782305737
