A new background story on The Silicon Underground focuses on Transmeta's Crusoe CPU, an unusual processor from the early 2000s that competed with Intel with its energy-efficient design and later continued as an IP licence model. In the article, David L. Farquhar traces how Transmeta initially sought to score points in the market for mobile and energy-efficient systems with the Crusoe architecture, but later failed:
