Thanks Rich! Correction noted and fixed. I’m under the weather today and trying to muddle through the day, but clearly it’s affecting my writing.

Who created the title for this story?

Intel Atom shortages breathe more live into VIA C7-M

ought to be:

Intel Atom shortages breathe more life into VIA C7-M

Several PC makers? How many and what are those PC makers? As far as we know, all the PC makers on the table were using Atom except HP. Would those PC makers mean Acer?

Any way, I do not consider that enormous sales boost for VIA.

If that “benchmark-party” finally happens, PLEASE give us feedback on HEAT and NOISE. There´s a bunch of non-power users out there like myself who are not that much interested in raw power, but in silent, cold machines we can use comfortably.

I´ve had both the money and the inclination to buy one of these machines for a long while, and haven´t done so precisely because I haven´t been able to find anything remotely closer to “cool and silent”.

(Ah, HTC Advantage! If only you could run XP…)

Thank you very much.

Fine with me. The C7m gets a bad wrap, but it works just fine for how most people use a subnote.
