Major turnaround in processor market predicted
,----[ Quote ]
| Now, ARM CPUs are invading the first tier.
| Earlier this month, for example, Lenovo
| introduced both an ARM smartbook called the
| Skylight (below left) and a hybrid
| smartbook/tablet called the IdeaPad U1
| (below right). Both devices employ Lenovo's
| Skylight Linux distribution, running it on
| a ARM-based, 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon,
| though the IdeaPad hedges bets by including
| a dual-core Pentium as well in its
| detachable keyboard/base unit, which runs
| Windows 7.

| "If you look at what's been accomplished in 18
| months to two years and compare that to the 25
| years of the Wintel monopoly, it's clear that
| the consumer experience on Linux-based
| desktops ... in a relatively short period of

Intel Not a Strong Presence on the Mobile Market, ARM CEO Claims
,----[ Quote ]
| The ARM CEO concedes to the fact that the PC
| market is rightfully aimed at x86 chips, but
| says that the mobile segment is still ARM's
| territory. He also believes that versions of
| the Linux operating system will provide an
| experience similar to Windows, seeing how,
| according to him, consumers aren't concerned
| with the OS as long as the device performs
| well and has a working, comprehensive
| interface.
