Intel and Orange County Choppers Create the Intel Chopper!
August 13
Intel and Orange County Choppers* (OCC) Teamed up and creted one of the meanest bikes ever built. The Intel Chopper
This Chopper has a four cylinder dual V-twin motors compined with Intel® quad-core processors enable a new level of performance. Four Intel processing cores create a compute density that is unsurpassed in performance/watt efficiency and stability.
The Chopper’s central management console is controlled through the SwitchBack* PC, the world’s first rugged, ultra-mobile personal computer (UMPC) from Black Diamond Advanced Technology*, an Intel® Communications Alliance (ICA) member, featuring Intel® Celeron® processor platform technology. A kind of a tablet Pc it can be de-attached from the chopper and used as a all different computer tablet
This chopper has no rear view mirrors, replacing this are 2 cameras which give the video out in the central controller.
No Worries If you loose the keys, Because this chopper really has no keys. All you have to do to start the machine is just put your thumb on the finger print reader and the beast will start.

That thing looks bad@ss!!
The Intel Chopper was just here in Chandler, AZ at my work site. Pictures do no justice to this animal. It truly is a work of art! It must be seen to be appreciated. OCC represented Intel well on this thing.

Cool looking bike, but the whole corporate branding thing really irritates me.
Isn't building a chopper a why to say F* You to the man?
It's great they get corporate funding for projects like this, but it's just not that cool when it has "Intel" written all over it. Where do they draw the line, Mary Kay or Hello Kitty?

Technology now offers you a way to get a dreaded BSOD that really MEANS it. I can see it now, a rider lies splattered on the highway while the flickering, sputtering display reads "Creating Dr. Watson . . . "

I like most of OCC's work (in terms of craftsmanship), but to make all
these bikes hardtails seems like the easy way out.
Of course, these theme bikes are rarely ridden, so I suppose having
rear suspension isn't a priority... but it would show that at least they
put in the extra effort. I'd put the whole thing on Air so it could be
dropped down and stand-up by itself - perhaps it could sit on two
small motorized 'outriggers' for stability while parked.
