Low power and 2.0GHz Atoms Coming Comments

Intel have certainly blazed a trail with power and efficincy in the CPU market but I can't help feeling a few more watts and a dose more power would open up the netbook market to people like me who like the concept but want something that can do some real work (and dont want to pay Sony £1500+ for a TT).

I have to agree. As much as I admire Atom and the new market it has created, the machines are just too slow. Ok, perhaps more of them should run Linux (my Dell from Vodafone didn't have the option), but they could be running DOSSHELL and still feel like treacle.
