21.   Pipelining is the continuous flow of instructions to the processor chip.

22.   Processor chips use a bit of memory called a cache to speed up performance.

23.   Right now, manufacturers are shipping to these companies half-built PCs with the motherboard, floppy disk drive, processor chip and some memory already installed.

24.   That board contains most of the circuitry for the computer, including the processor chip and all the components that work with it.

25.   That may be worth considering since it is easy to damage a processor chip.

26.   That way, the processor chips, for example, can be shipped directly from Intel to the distributor, cutting more expensive days off the supply chain.

27.   The chips on the board, including the processor chip, are buildings, and the circuitry that ties these chips together makes up the bus.

28.   The evolution of computer processor chips has had a similar growth spurt on the PC side.

29.   The first step was to cut way back on the number of components, like processor chips and hard disk drives, they kept on hand.

30.   The gadget comes with a super-small processor chip and tiny fixed antenna.
