With the advent of the mobile market we've seen a surge in computing technology especially with Smartphones.
Right now it is possible to run Netbooks with nothing but ARM, given the massively parallel nature of ARM SoC or development boards (separate processor/DSP for decoding video etc) for the given price point do you see parallel ARM competing directly with VIA, Atom, and Llano style netbooks and notebooks in the very near future?
Also take into consideration Windows 8, Tegra, Snapdragon but also on the flipside improvements to Atom's IGP (PowerVR) and things like Llano? (however I don't think these systems will ever occupy sub 20W space where ARM presently can, depending on end user need).
Are we seeing something very different here or what?
