You could kinda see why the analysts are favoring ARM though. As of now, ARM has all the advantage(not talking about desktops and laptops, just tablets and smartphones).



Sure, and if I were an ANAlyst, I would too if I didn't know what Intel was doing. Like I said, Intel better have something pretty damn good...

Right now, Atom is very underwhelming. Sure, the TDP of Lincroft is quite impressive considering its same generation, but its yet to be unveiled, and it was announced almost a year ago, with products that were supposed to arrive last year. With current projections of Medfield products arriving late this year, the chip is guaranteed to be full one generation behind in process technology compared to Intel's bleeding edge tech. There's no process advantage here at all.



Right, but they are supposed to be moving EVERYTHING to 22nm so it's really 2012 when anything good can happen other than seeing something in a tablet and smart phone.
