Another upstart to challenge Intel

Transmeta and Montalvo tried. And failed.

Now, its the turn of another upstart - Qualcomm.

In the fight for building a low-power microprocessor intended for MIDs and low cost PCs, Intel - the Microsoft of uP industry- has been able to ward off any competition that has arisen so far; by hook or crook that is irrelevant for the end users anyhow. Hope this time around Qualcomm, together with AMD and ARM, will be able to put up a good fight to Intel's Atom.
