Image via WikipediaHarvard Business Review: The Fall of Wintel and the Rise of Armdroid: incumbents find it immensely hard to disrupt themselves..... They tried jamming a PC into a smaller form factor, which entirely missed the point. Their tablet should have been about disrupting the PC market with something light, cheap and simple. Instead, Microsoft tried to make it do everything. ...... the only line of business that is barely growing is the Atom, Intel's mobile processor. ..... Microsoft's point of view: now that Windows 7 has been developed, to sell another copy, they don't have to do a single thing. Because of this, it becomes very hard for any executive to advocate the complete development of a low cost OS that will run on tablets: not only would it cost Microsoft a lot to develop, but it would result in cannibalization of its core product sales ...... ARM processors are perfect for powering these handheld devices. Manufacturers can customize to their heart's content. And Android is on track to dominate the operating system space .... ARM and Android — Armdroid — are providing everything that tablet manufacturers need, and doing it more effectively and at a lower cost than Microsoft and Intel are able to.I am still betting on the Chrome OS Notebook to kill Windows. Tablets and smartphones are all good, but for the power user there is still a need for a bigger screen and a full fledged keyboard.
might be the only way, or the best way, to make sense of the thousands and millions of tweets being created by the minute. The idea can not be to read every single tweet, but to read all of them at once. Great blog post. ![Reblog this post [with Zemanta]](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_uV63w9zSEV6ykNp589SX08Im03pZIqiQYyFWZljKgNC-2VrygEddgMuqKcD28WhXY3jev6C8MiNaPJggH1UYP9u9nXMDQpQILc_8_VO4kJN9svebgr3EyJV6LCFrnhn9KMB8iUhHG2DoEP4PxmEFD8=s0-d)
