The situation looks even more 'hot' with the announcement from Microsoft. The next Windows operating system promised Microsoft will support the ARM processor.

 

Yet it appears to the microprocessor giant is not disrupted. As quoted by Reuters on Friday (01/14/2011), Intel's profit surged 48 percent year-on-year in 2010.

Intel CEO Paul Ottelini, also appeared confident with its product that will compete with ARM. Ottelini deliver remarks while announcing the performance of Intel in 2010.

"As we have done for decades, we will apply the most advanced technology of silicon transistors in this segment to deliver products that most low-power, high performance and low cost on the planet," said Ottelini.

At the very least, have prepared a range of Intel Atom that are expected to compete with ARM based processors such as issued by Samsung, Qualcomm or Nvidia.

"When the chips (we made), combined with our support on the main operating system world, which has proven ability in creating a broad ecosystem support, and capabilities of our software grows, I am sure we will be successful in these new segments," Ottelini explicitly.
