What do you think "port of choice" means? Are you still arguing that it means Windows... On Windows?



What do you think "port" means? (Hint: It's not something you do with an existing binary.)

Instead, think about Canon printer software, or software that goes to any of the 100s of USB based devices that would be useful to hook up directly to a smart phone. My smartphone comes with a low profile USB connection already. Would be nice to hook up printers, cameras, or external drives.



Right, because Linux has no drivers... LOL. And you think Windows drivers are going to just plug right into a Linux OS? Please.

Intel's strategy has obviously been to leverage this by providing the tools for developers to easily port their apps across the various Atom platforms.



What are the tools exactly? Where specifically are Intel's tools that allow app developers to run Windows apps on Meego, for instance?

That's something that ARM has not announced any plans to do, and is presumably more difficult due to their architectural barriers and the broad range of ARM SOCs, each of which require software tweaking for compatibility.
