Default i3 and i5

Has anybody heard about them?

Apparently Intel is coming out with less expensive versions of the i7.

i3 and i5 are just the new names for older processors by the way they cost no more just different packaging.. accordin to custom PC.. i think dual cores are i3, quad are i5 and the new ones with five cores are the i7
