I remember back in 2008, the Atom CPUs were released.
And today, almost 4 years later, we have marginally faster dual-core versions.
But ARM processors..
2007 - Single-core 220Mhz
2008 - Single-core 330Mhz
2009 - Single-core 660Mhz
2010 - Single-core 1Ghz w/the GPU power of a GMA 950
2011 - Dual-core 1Ghz/1.2Ghz w/the GPU power of a 6600 GT
2012 - Quad-core 1Ghz+ w/the GPU power of a 7600 GT
2013 - Octo-core 1-2.5Ghz w/the GPU power of a 9600 GT
2014 - Octo-core 1-2.5Ghz w/the GPU power of an 8800 GTX
Can someone explain this?
I don't think there has EVER been an industry where such growth was seen so quickly.
I mean, I get the low-power attraction.. but these things can't even run Windows.
