How Microsoft invented, or invisibly runs, almost everything
Well, it seems as if Microsoft is being credited with inventing almost everything.

“Most powerful” Arduino ever has ARM Cortex-A8 chip, runs “full Linux”
The Arduino TRE.
Arduino
The Arduino line of open source electronic prototyping platforms is getting some major upgrades. Earlier today, the first Intel-powered Arduino was announced, and it will be available by the end of November.
Arduino has also announced the Arduino TRE, based on the Texas Instruments Sitara AM335x ARM Cortex-A8 processor. Texas Instruments said that with the TRE’s 1GHz processor, it is the “most powerful Arduino to date” and the first that will be able to run “full Linux.” It will be available in spring 2014 from arduino.cc and other distributors, with pricing not yet announced.
“For the first time ever, Arduino users can use the full capabilities of Linux and gain access to a variety of new on-board connectivity options to develop a range of powerful, advanced applications while leveraging the simplicity of the Arduino software experience,” the Texas Instruments announcement said. “The Sitara-processor-powered Arduino TRE serves as a network hub that can connect to millions of classic Arduino nodes, enabling customers to be at the forefront of the Internet-of-Things era.”

Introducing the 5-watt server that runs on cell phone chips (Barb Darrow/GigaOM)
Barb Darrow / GigaOM:
Introducing the 5-watt server that runs on cell phone chips — Can ARM wrestle its way into the server market? Calxeda and Hewlett-Packard think so. On Tuesday Calxeda launched its EnergyCore ARM server-on-a-chip (SoC), which it says consumes as little as 1.5 watts (and idles at half a watt).
