"But with ARM and AMD releasing competitive products, the Atom is no longer alone in the market and even Asus is branching out."

Geode isnt ARM, Is x86.

I do the same for one restaurant in Mexico but is for palm 4 (like 7 years ago), the palm display the menu and you can order directly from the palm, the restaurant have 30 palms (sony clie) with wifi and send automatic to the kitchen and cashier the orders.

Hmmmm that Geode NX would be equivalent to an Athlon XP 1800+ I think, had a 2100+ for along time thats base clock was 1544 on the same bus speed. But yeah, why on earth go with the sis chipset, at the very least they could of used Nvidia or their own. And at 130nm die process node, just imagine the power savings if they ramped these things down to 60nm or the current 45nm node, not to mention if they did that they could probably ramp up the clock quite a bit...

Read your own quote. He said with "arm and amd releasing comptetitive products". If you still can't understand, arm is releasing a competitive product also.

[citation][nom]cknobman[/nom]Geode 1750 = 14 watt processor = SUPER FAIL for netbook.Most Atom netbook processors like the n270 use 2.5 watts and I think the most go up to 6 or 7 watts.[/citation]

I like AMD but this is really a vintage netbook This tech level notebook you get used very-very cheap, and if you take desktops, then almost for free.
