I'm not convinced what they're planning will be able to run Linux. They've been talking about this "WinCPU" thing - think WinModem and the trouble those are causing Linux at the moment. If M$ pay Intel a lot of money to develop a proprietary CPU that only M$ have the API for, I'm sure Intel would happily take their money. Then we end up with very cheap hardware that can only run Windoze...
