To talk to the old-timer game companies, like EA and Sierra. They have HUNDREDS of games that would run great on Netbooks, if the Game companies would get off their lazy rears and simply update them to W7/newer Languages.
Games like MULE, Starflight, ARCHON, ANY of the old Kingsquest series, Sylpheed, etc. How 'bout The old Arcades, like PAcman, Galaga, Donkey Kong, etc. The old-timers like me would buy these games in a heartbeat. These games were great in their day, and there's a whole new generation of players that have never seen them. And they can compare very well to what you can get for the iOS.
An Atom processor would actually be overkill in terms of speed, considering that many of these games were written for the old 6502 chips.
