Microsoft Gives ARM Massive Christmas Present
December 22, 2010
If the ARM guys have been getting a little feisty of late, now we know the reason why. Microsoft has given them the biggest Christmas present they could ever hope for - a port of Windows to ARM.
This means ARM can get into the computer market - something that has been denied to it by the Microsoft-Intel, OS-processor, combo.
Bloomberg says that, at CES 2011 in January, Microsoft will announce a version of the Windows OS that runs on ARM chips.
