Kohjinsha SA1F00V: 7" tablet UMPC Adds Touchscreen, Still as Slow as Before

| That's because rather than jumping on the Ultra Mobile 2007 platform
| bandwagon with their new model, they just decided to keep the same 500 MHz
| AMD Geode LX800 processor. At least they painted it KITT black, probably
| hoping that the new color will add some TurboBoost to it (replacing XP for
| Linux would have achieved the same without the need for leather pants).

No wonder Intel has chosen GNU/Linux for its UMPC. Windows XP, particularly
with anti-virus software and Registry clogups, puts a great strain on speed
and battery life. In mobile computing, only the lean survives.
