"Are people really going to want to use a low-powered netbook for two years?"
"For one, they would either have colossal battery lives (if they had the same build as standard MacBooks) because the ARM architecture uses far less power than Intel; or they would be comparatively low-powered but weigh next to nothing (if the battery was slimmed down to give them the same sort of life as existing machines)."
"Intel and AMD will continue to innovate on the X86 platform, including the new low-powered SoC systems that will be fully supported by Windows, and will include support for native X86 applications."
