    Why is there a "Robson" folder in swsetup?

    Robson refers to Intel's Turbo Memory, right? I thought HP had decided not to incorporate Turbo Memory into their laptops. So why is there a "Robson" folder in swsetup? Is it some kind of post-production residual software?

    Is your name Rob and do you have a son? Maybe he created his own folder.

    On a serious note, Robson is a code-name for Intel's Turbo Memory. I doubt the folder would be named after a code-name.

    Yeah, I saw that too. HP is not implementing Robson, but it probably comes from some standard package intel distributes to everyone with the santa rosa chipset. You can pretty much just ignore it.
