Everybody thought it would be "Core 3," but no… it's "Core i7."

Intel have decided to brand Nehalem with a new name “Core i7″. That means no matter Bloomfield, Lynnfield, or Havendale will officially get their name.
There will be 3 Bloomfield to enter PC market later this year, and the 999USD top-of-the-line Bloomfield is the only Core i7 Extreme Edition processor current revealed.
All i7 processors and i7 Extreme Edition processor will be officially announced in Aug 11st, launch date set to Q4 this year.

I see Intel being heavily influenced by Apple! Not only for product nomenclature but also logo designs! This is probably the first ever Intel logo that may be likable by the Mac community (but still not enough to be stuck on our Macs of course!:p

Not that much of a change but i7 is interesting.

So basically it is the 786 processor. Which confirms that Core & Core 2 was the 686.

286
386
486
"586": Pentium
"686": Pentium Pro, Pentium II, Pentium III, Pentium M (including Core), Core 2
"786": Core i7

It looks like there's no more "Duo," "Quad," etc. Oh well. There's other ways (mockup).
