Interesting. I see it from a different point of view - embedded devices on the edge of the network (like phones and set-top boxes), with services deployed in a hosting center or on app hosting service. Or in marketing-speak, cloud computing. The state of being embedded is different from the architecture, even if ARM is dominant. It's more of - how design/develop/deploy on systems that are not your regular desktop/laptop PC, with resource constraints. One problem: no local availability of embedded development or even "hobbyist" boards. _________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List http://lists.linux.org.ph/mailman/listinfo/plug Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
