CopyVIO

This seem a copy and paste from http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/mobile/display/20081020045524_Intel_Demos_World_s_First_Moorestown_Platform_for_Mobile_Internet_Devices.html ??? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.57.151.96 (talk) 19:35, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it was a WP:COPYVIO. I blanked the article, apart from the first sentence. The article will need to be rewritten. It would be interesting to know what architecture the Moorestown processor is (X86 or otherwise).--Lester 23:04, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

@Lester: Moorestown is simply an Atom core and other modules on a single chip. So it's an in-order x86 architecture. @article: "Released in 2010, the platform runs Moblin Linux." This seems to imply it can only run Moblin Linux, which is not true - Atom can run any x86 OS/app. I've edited the article. Ssj4Gogeta (talk) 18:05, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
