Ten - Re: "Transmeta will make processors that allow low-end laptops to run longer than your average laptop. I think that's the differentiating factor that Transmeta is looking for" That's a good assessment. However, I'm pretty convinced that low power/long battery life is NOT a first order item in most customer's purchase decisions. AMD's Kmart 6 shooters always suck down more power than Intel CPUs for a given frequency - yet people still by the Kmart chips/notebooks. Price may be a swing factor, but Power dissipation most likely isn't. Witness all the unsold Win CE machines still sitting on store shelves - they all have very low power consumption. Paul
