Of course, they need a coherent ecosystem something like what Apple provides, but if they do, MS will have a very interesting time of it. I can't see them wanting to port Windows to ARM. Wade.

Post #322,909 by folkert 3/15/10 9:12:44 AM Reply	Actually... ARM machines exist already... they just aren't in the US yet. iPad sets new lows in some areas and new highs in other areas. I hope I can get the runtime and functionality I want out of an ARM based "netbook"

Post #322,950 by static 3/15/10 6:42:46 PM Reply	Ubuntu is on record as supporting ARM. I'd be happy with a netbook with an ARM chip instead of an Intel chip, provided that's the only change. WiFi and USB covers all other connectivity. My Aspire One unfortunately wastes a lot of its battery power as heat, but I know some Intel-based netbooks get many hours out of their battery. I would expect an ARM-based netbook to get a few days. :-) Bring it on! Wade. Q:Is it proper to eat cheeseburgers with your fingers? A:No, the fingers should be eaten separately.
