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!"

The speed of your CPU in your PC, laptop, or workstation. This is never written out in full and is always abbreviated as "pp."
Guy with massive Processor Performance: I have a huge pp.
Guy with tiny Processor Performance: I wish my pp was that large.

Get the Processor Performance mug.A Super Quantum Unit Intel Processor, or, SQUIP, is from Japan. It’s a grey oblong pill, quantum nanotechnology CPU. The quantum computer in the pill will travel through your blood until it implants in your brain and it tells you what to do. It’s preprogrammed, it’s amazing, speaks to you directly. You behave as it’s appraising, helps you act correctly. It helps you to be cool. It helps you rule...
“Hey, Jeremy, you need a Super Quantum Unit Intel Processor.”
“So...drugs?”
“It’s better than drugs. IT’S FROM JAPAAAAAAAAN!”

Get the Neuro-net processor mug.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.
