CNET News.com's Stephen Shankland explains why Intel hopes CSI will do for the chipmaker what it did for CBS. Of course, we're not talking about the popular television show. Rather, Intel is working on a new engineering approach that could provide an easier way for processors to communicate with each other and with the rest of a computer.

Also, Hewlett-Packard's embattled chairwoman Patricia Dunn speaks with CNET News.com and vows to tough it out. And remember Silicon Graphics, formerly one of Silicon Valley's hottest companies? Times have changed and new circumstances are forcing SGI to change with them.
