Intel Chip Code named "Merom"

Quote from news:"
The underlying architecture of Intel's notebook and desktop chip families will be reunited by 2007, and the resulting chips will have an Israeli accent.

The Santa Clara, Calif.-based chip giant will adopt a common processor core, code-named Merom, for its notebook and desktop lines of chips in 2007, according to sources, a shift calculated to bring greater energy efficiency to desktops and one that underscores that Intel is taking noticeable steps to move away from getting more performance through megahertz. "

Did anyone else happen to get this name confused with MORON? Just wondering....
