With a flood of ARM-based netbooks coming to the market starting somewhere end of this year, many hope it will be another opportunity for Linux to get some mainstream exposure. Since "normal" Windows doesn't run on ARM, Linux is the only obvious choice. Right? Well, Warren East, president and CEO of ARM Holdings plc, has been dropping hints that Windows might make its way to ARM after all. At least, that's what EETimes is concluding.

ROFL...that is a good one. Indeed, although I know Linux is considered rock-stable when it comes to embedded devices, I always wondered if a stripped down version of Windows or Windows CE can do a similar job, without any errors. Sadly, there seems to be no benchmarks or detailed tests out there comparing the two... :-|
