Netbooks are still all the rage these days, but according to Intel, this is going to change soon. The company has stated that they first thought that netbooks, who are almost exclusively powered by Intel chips, would be for emerging markets, but as it turns out, they are especially popular in Europe and North America. Intel claims that while these devices are "fine for an hour", they are not something for day to day use. And AMD? They are ignoring the market altogether.

x86 is dead? What planet are you on? x86 is bigger than ever. Even if some amazing breakthrough processor came out today it would be at least ten years before x86 dies and Loongson does not seem to be a breakthrough. If you're been around long enough you'd know that x86 was supposed to be killed several times by Mips, PPC and others. It never happened.
