no, this is not the 1st of april ... x86 beats ARM at power efficency in Tablets

[Drwho?]

The ARM Chromebook is twice as fast in Browsermark as this Clovertrail based system.

217,031 Chrome, dual core 1.7GHz A15 Exynos
101,644 MS IE10, dual core 1,8GHz Atom, Clovertrail

They simply don't intent to compete against the $250 Chromebook considering
the $800 which is asked here for a (20% slower) version using a 1.5GHz Clovertrail.
Or a similar Clovertrail system from Dell for $829...

So from <$300 Atom based netbooks we are now going to $800 Atom based systems
We'll see how this all ends...

your post are always so misleading , it is not even funny, you had to choose the most expensive Clovrtrail, and compare it with a system that have half the RAM and few other details, same song as acehardware 10 years ago. then, look at the battery life of the chrome book, and the one of clovertrail, it is almost double in the favor of clovertrail ...

then, comparing 2 totally different software stack (Android vs. Windows 8), and get to a definitive answer ... you are funny ...

you ll never change, what ever it takes to impose your opinion, even making honest people look like they are doing fishy things. you simply forget to say that everything is open source or part of consortium, like the Sysmark stuff you posted before, forgetting to say that AMD voted for 80% of the decision in sysmark. Since then, AMD changed their position on Sysmark, you should go and ask them , and let me know. Let me know if they decline agreeing with 80% of the decision there, or saying it is not a good benchmark, I would be VERY interested if they do so.

and yes, the little green men were in Roswell ... lol

With all due respect, you may want to join those consortiums , instead of always pretending that we are controlling every thing, like you did in the past, and see what is really happening.
(and you really think guys like AMD, NV and others join those benchmarks consortiums, and let us control every thing? they are smarter than this)

I have my hands clean, come and see, instead of repeating the same BS again and again for ages ...
