processor
A short way of saying "Central Processing Unit" (CPU). It is a computer term to define the hardware that allows you to run applications
"A computer will not run without a processor"
"Wow, I just upgraded my processor so I can run programs faster!"

Cell Processor
Cell is a microprocessor architecture jointly developed by a Sony, Toshiba, and IBM alliance known as STI.
Cell is a shorthand for Cell Broadband Engine Architecture, commonly abbreviated CBEA in full or Cell BE in part. Cell combines a general-purpose POWER-architecture core of modest performance with streamlined coprocessing elements which greatly accelerate multimedia and vector processing applications, as well as many other forms of dedicated computation.
The major commercial application of Cell is in Sony's upcoming PlayStation 3 game console which is slated to launch in November 2006. It will also become available in a blade configuration from Mercury Computer Systems. Toshiba has announced plans to incorporate Cell in high definition television sets. Exotic features such as the XDR memory subsystem and coherent EIB interconnect appear to position Cell for future applications in the supercomputing space to exploit the Cell processor's prowess in floating point kernels.
Up to Two-Billion calculations a second.

deuce processor
To go number 2 in someone's desktop computer. Similar to an upper decker, but much more inappropriate.
The gentleman with the dickeration was not pleased to find some had installed a deuce processor in his machine overnight.
superscalar processor
A form of parallel processing using a single computer processor containing multiple pipelines. Intel's 80486 and Pentium processors were of this type.
Also called superscalar architecture.
Also called superscalar architecture.
Superscalar processors can reduce bottlenecks and increase throughput.
Neuro-net processor
A processing CPU in the Terminator that allows it to learn from its surroundings, usually learning quite a bit it can eventually take on human characteristics.
