Remember flipstart, that little Windows XP running computer (that coincidentally looks like this) and was using a Transmeta Crusoe processor? Well, it was going to be produced by noneother than Paul Allen's Vulcan Ventures but never came about for some unknown reason. Probably because Crusoe was underpowered. Well, Microsoft then signs this deal with Transmeta last spring to use their Efficeon in a "secret" project. Efficeon is near the power of an Intel mobile processor but runs much cooler and with less power. Anyway, this deal with Transmeta (per recent disclosure) is near completion and will be announced this or next quarter. All the details between this origami rumor and the work order listed in Transmeta's 3rd quarter filing match up. This is going to be an XP running machine with great media center features and resembling the flipstartpc.com<br><br>Efficeon @90nm using LongRun2<br><br>It is going to be impressive. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[EnricoFermi]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 24th 2006 10:12PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Microsoft&#039;s Origami project]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/24/microsofts-origami-project/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/24/microsofts-origami-project/</guid><description><![CDATA[You can rule the world with this thing.

Handheld computers are getting to the point where they've outgrowing Windows CE/mobile/smartphone, but still have small screens that aren't suitable for running a full sized Windows XP interface and apps that are often hard coded to work on a ~100dpi display. Linux on the other hand has a growing core of applications aimed at handhelds, using very little memory and are comfortable displaying on a 240x320 100dpi screen, a 640x480 ~200dpi screen or a 1280x1024 ~100dpi screen, without a recompile. Often full fledged desktop linux apps will work on different architectures with a simple recompile, so whether this thing has an ARM, PowerPC, Mips or x86 is of little consequence.  Also, a comfortable Linux install with PIM apps, and a web browser fits comfortably in 16MB of flash. And that includes a package manager: Yes that means it can function as a completely autonmous unit, not requiring a desktop/notebook to help it install apps. And last but not least, a much overlooked feature of Linux: the network-transparent X11 display system. Display apps on the screen on the go, or display them on anything running an X server when you have access to it. OK, I've rambled enough now, back to hacking on my Zaurus C1000.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[john]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 24th 2006 10:39PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Microsoft&#039;s Origami project]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/24/microsofts-origami-project/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/24/microsofts-origami-project/</guid><description><![CDATA[That thing is the most hideous product I ever saw in my life.

I can't believe you guys giving fanboys a bad name. Sure, it's microsoft, and yes, it does look like a big, expensive screen, but you can't just jump to conclusions like that. Even microsoft can make a cool product every once in a while (from what Ihear, the 360 is pretty slick).<br><br> Also, I admit, that once it is out I will hate it and perpetuate every lie about it.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Phantom bantam]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 25th 2006 12:44AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Microsoft&#039;s Origami project]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/24/microsofts-origami-project/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/24/microsofts-origami-project/</guid><description><![CDATA[yah guys its crap... itll run for 12 hours, always be connected to 3g and have instant on... yeah crap<br><br>btw, itll run vista, there is no way they are going to release this running xp tablet pc edition. this will make use of vistas scaling capabilities. do i see a mediacenter button on the bottom right hand side? i do hope that its as small as i think it is...<br><br>» Microsoft's Origami project (2/24/2006)<br>» microsofts-origiami-project (2/24/2006) lol<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[rafael]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 25th 2006 12:47AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Microsoft&#039;s Origami project]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/24/microsofts-origami-project/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/24/microsofts-origami-project/</guid><description><![CDATA[it would be cool if it could act as a media center remote. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Landon]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 25th 2006 1:13AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Microsoft&#039;s Origami project]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/24/microsofts-origami-project/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/24/microsofts-origami-project/</guid><description><![CDATA[Besides Windows 98 and securing OS dominancy by making it too complicated to switch, what have they ever executed well?<br><br>The stylus and keyboard concepts are all wrong. It's just not convenient enough for media control. What you need are those apple panted two-finger gestures. I love a good product and everything but how's this any different from the 2,000 dollar OQO we saw last year? <br><br>You know, i like iLife 06 as much as any other person but a result of having such a good Apple program out in the market is that you remove all the competition. No one is going to come out with a mainstream app that mimics 'iLife. That's not going to happen.<br><br>So if it fails Microsoft's stock plummets from the effect of a failed launch. If it is wildly succesful then it is to the detriment of MSFT-powered mini-tops.<br><br>Of course, MSFT can say, to hell with strategy, I'm going to make the best product I can. MSFT just doesn't think like that. And that's why so many smart people have left that company. What's the point of being smart if the sum of your life is making products that are only strategically better? What's the point of winning a basketball game if you don't allow your players to score as much as possible?  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[rdun]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 25th 2006 1:16AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Microsoft&#039;s Origami project]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/24/microsofts-origami-project/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/24/microsofts-origami-project/</guid><description><![CDATA[Flipstart running a Transmeta Crusoe processsor was going to be produced by Vulcan Ventures, and now it will be running an Efficeon???<br><br>At first I thought someone was just making up a lot of gibberish...
