if M$ ever releases a unified Windows OS (ARM & X86 cross computable) AMD may have even more advantage.

it is even possible if chrome os and android hybrid (which is going to happen in the near future) gets the potential and user friendliness of windows.


This could be addition of another great technology from AMD to computer or may be mobile world.so , lets wait and see how far it goes.

^^ no. Windows for X86 is different from those of ARM. Maybe some linux distros can. When in idle, the A5 will take over and processor will be powergated and A5 will take over with assistance from the GPU section. Just a theory.

As far as my knowledge goes, I think it is practically impossible.
