If I understand the point your trying to make, and by all means, correct me if I am wrong...

You say:

"Adding ARM to the plethora of windows versions will be funny to watch."

This means it humerus to watch a company that produces operating systems produce an operating system that will run on a new processor that previous versions would not run on? Is that the long and short of it?

Let me expand; perhaps its due to the fact that Windows is already offered in multiple versions, so that Windows 8 being offered in a version that will now run on ARM, a processor that by all accounts is gaining in popularity due to the advance of micro processing generally, that now that there may be one more version of Windows is hilarious, as in is an inherently jokey thing that an OS has multiple versions, particularly when the company that produces said OS tries to accommodate a new and growing segment of the market??

Ya...thats just flippin' hilarious by anyones standard...except the general public. General public that is, excluding IT types who have lost all touch with what the real Joe Average general public really wants in the real world and not the world of IT types who judge everything by nothing more then their own personal preferences.

Then you say:

"Good move by MS. Worrying news for Intel in this space (and those of us with platforms built on Atom). The pipeline must be pretty poor for MS to make this call."

I guess you were hoping that not a soul would throw it in your face what a backhanded compliment "Good move by MS" is considering your ridiculous comment about Intel and the whole "pipeline must be pretty poor for MS to make this call" comment implies.

Your just plain silly and always keep in mind that there is always a serious risk of someone calling you out for being so silly when you purposely talk so silly when it would seem for obvious reasons you should know better.
