    I've had all sorts of bad experiences with VIA but I'm stubborn and think this Nano thing is very nice in the paper. I'm not willing to try it before it's settled though.

    If I didn't already have one I'd be interested.


    Nano seems like a pretty cool platform based on what I've read.

    I look forward to reading the real world comparisons with the Atom platform.

    @Samets:

    I think they're using a lead-free process now so that shouldn't be a problem.


    Probably bring thos test scores up too... ;)

    A laptop or desktop processor that's not made by Intel or AMD is no good and useless.


    Plus the previous via processors struggle with 2 applications at the same time so no good.

    @Andre Ondre: I'd definitely take the Nano over the Atom. Intel's always had a problem doing low-end stuff; when they set out to make a gimped processor, they really outdo themselves.


    Here's some benchmarks so you can see for yourself:

    @HeartBurnKid, creepy morbid freak:


    I'm not disagreeing with you altogether, but 25W vs. 4W is a huge difference, and a valid trade-off for speed if that's what you want.
