haha the comments are hilarious. But they make a point in the discussions. Is the intel chip really good for smart phones? It looks like smart phone and tablet manufacturers are moving to AMD processors because they use less power and are faster. Plus the components are not the best quality. So are they shipping us 'old wine in new wineskins'? your thoughts. On Fri, Jan 25, 2013 at 9:28 AM, geoffrey gitagia <ggitagia@gmail.com>wrote:

yes, ARM based processor. Thanks for the correction. On Fri, Jan 25, 2013 at 11:14 AM, Dennis Kioko <dmbuvi@gmail.com> wrote:

You mean ARM based processor, cause I am yet to hear of an AMD mobile processor. As for power consumption, I think it performs favourably, such as comparing Windows RT and Windows Surface tablets, which now have lamost similar battery life with the former based on ARM and the latter on Intel. _______________________________________________ skunkworks mailing list skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke ------------ List info, subscribe/unsubscribe http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/skunkworks ------------
