OMFG!!! Microsoft is porting Windows to ARM processors! It’s the end of the Intel/x86 dominance! It’s the start of a new age!

Or it’s no big deal. You decide.

At last week’s Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, Microsoft officially admitted that it is porting Windows—real Windows, not just Windows CE or Windows Embedded or Windows Phone—to ARM-based processors. The operating system we know and love from millions of PCs will soon be available on another platform. The company even demonstrated an early Windows port running on some ARM-based evaluation boards from Texas instruments, Qualcomm, and others.
