After the rather unexpected success of the netbook, manufacturers started looking for more ways to capitalise on the cheaper end of the market. Many of them are now putting netbook internals (the Atom platform) in desktop computers, such as nettops and cheaper all-in-one solutions. According to several analysts, this is going to be one of the few places where the desktop market can grow. And while we're on the subject of hardware, TechRepublic took the Dell Adamo apart to see its internals.

Agreed. Plus it's not like the atom is that slow. It's still faster and has more memory than what was around when XP was released. Plus the graphics chip is also better than the old intel 815.
There's no need for developers to optimize anything. All the user has to do is dust off their Office XP and Photoshop 7 cds and use those.
