So to paraphrase the other thread – “Will we be all safer if everyone were ARMed?”[/quote]
Oh boy… I love this line An example is ViewSonic’s Corp.’s ViewPad 10, which features an Atom processor and is capable of running Windows 7 or Android 1.6. The tablet is scheduled to be available in March.
Wow…Well, phew I’m glad ViewSonic is planning to run Android 1.6 (aka Donut) on an Atom based tablet…..Too bad that Android 1.6 is like 3 generations behind…
It’s not even Android Eclair or for that matter Froyo. And definitely isn’t Gingerbread or Honeycomb for that matter. Who the hell is going to buy something 3 generations behind?
And like I predicted, Windoze Mobile 7 is turning out to be a flop…
And MeeGo who?
The issue I don’t think is ARM based processor moving into desktop/laptop/netbooks. I doubt that would happen…Because who wants to move into an already crowded, saturated, market. Otellini keeps deflecting the question asked about “what are you going to do in the mobile space with ARM dominating there”. Otellini keeps responding, “I doubt ARM will make inroads into the PC markets”…Hello, did you answer the first question? What are you going to do about the ARM-dominated mobile space? God I hope I’m wrong.
Someone please bring back Andy Grove from retirement…
