Chip company ARM is prepping to make its move into the netbook market, and now it has shown off a few prototype designs that really show off the benefits of using the ARM platform: thanks to passive cooling, no fans are required, enabling ARM netbooks to be much thinner and lighter than their Intel counterparts.
they are all capable of driving HD content, can surf the web for 8 hours, and will cost round and about 250 USD. They are all focused on Ubuntu; ARM and several of its licensees have worked with Canonical to bring their ARM-port up to speed. I must say that I am pretty much impressed.
