Didn't we just read an article from Michael J. Miller:

http://lxer.com/module/newswire/ext_link.php?rid=121531

He told us it was all Windows at CompuTex. You had to look behind the scenes to find an ARM based machine and it was "unimpressive" and clearly needed "a lot of work". Jim Zemlin describes all sorts of Linux and ARM-based systems at Computex. Were there two different Computex events in Taiwan this week. Surely these two can't be describing the same event.

Miller did say they existed but were not really being advertised. I'm sure there many reasons why (M$, market still being defined, economic uncertainty with the holidays approaching).

Mr. Zemlin talked about 'behind the scenes' as well; maybe Mr. Miller did'nt look there, and probably Mr. Zemlin is better at finding or recognizing them I guess. He's an insider after all. And of course Mr. Zemlin is biased.

Michael Miller is all about clicks at all costs. Don't read his articles if you want actual information.
