Merrifield is (Intel secret decoder ring translation - 'Edison')

I don't thionk anyone would care if Medfield and Moorestown kicked the
bucket upstream however. Moorestown wouldn't make much difference
code-wise as it has a 'real computer' twin (Oaktrail), but dumping the
Medfield code would be IMHO fine.
