  wake up

  no offence. america will not change unless she is extremely endangered. remember we assimilated a lot of ww2 german tech and concepts? we carried those to the cold war that held us in one piece. so what are we back to step 1? because our political and corporate do not feel threaten technologically. and why the heck are we still using 2g cellular networks and not hspda..... just proves that lack of understanding and involvement is self serving.

  Its ripped off

  I doubt its virtualization.....onboard the chip....they are just adding instructions so that means that the actual instructions are onboard the chip, thus infringing patents and licenses....crafty Chinese....
  
  The only way you can virtualize without a liscense is if its software virtualized

    There are techniques that would allow this, such as code morphing. Via used this in the Crusoe line of processors.

  Wake up Call 500274

  When positive articles touch on the Chinese, we feel fear. What is that we (Americans)fear?  My take is that we know the Chinese are hungry.  Hungry in a way that Americans have not been in 50 years. More importantly the Chinese are not restricted by psycho social concerns as we are in America. They play to win, regardless of the human cost.  That scares us more than anything because we know we have become a lethargic and complacent people; unable to compete on such a playing field.  Yes, they steal, they lie, they cheat.  The rules of the world have changed and in some small regard, stayed the same.  We better learn how to play by the old rules again or it will be our country, family and friends that grovel for a seat at the table plenty.
  
  Fight for your Country but do it wisely.

    Rather than feeling sour about the advance of Chinese, why don't people just put their heads down and do better work?

      There is no question we have to put our heads down and work harder.  And yes America has had its share of lies, deceits and betrayals.  But is that the America we live in now?  This brings us back to the question “Are we a nation of laws”.  The answer on the surface is without a doubt “yes”. Do we have room for improvement?  Again,”yes”. Do our politicians and establishments lie and cheat the common citizen. Again, “yes”. But here I pause. At what level are we lied to and cheated? Is our freedom and security tarnished so badly in this country that the concept of personal and intellectual property has become a joke? The answer to that question is “no”. We do enjoy protections of both Physical and intellectual property.
      
      While we struggle to maintain the securities and freedoms that have made this country strong we are left with a great dilemma. The world, most notably the Chinese are not playing by the rules. Wrong, right or the other we are forced to compete in a global Marketplace. My question is do we continue to play by rules that others (Chinese) do not? Can we compete if we continue to take the Moral high ground? Or are we forced to their level to compete and ultimately survive? 
      
      We must know our enemy (Economic enemy) if we hope to prosper in the coming generations.
      
      Without the Rule of Law the pirates and governments of the world win.  Who loses out?…The people! The Chinese appear to know this and not care.
      
      They need to know we are watching and that we care.

        I'm not so sure how well our intelectual property is protected.  Seems that he who has the most talented lawyers wins. Do you have any doubt that Microsoft has had all but a complete monopoly and yet was able to successfully fend off those charges?

    "We better learn how to play by the old rules again or it will be our country, family and friends that grovel for a seat at the table plenty. "
    
    Sure, let's exploit child labor, protect our oil abroad (China-Sudan, US-??), engender protectionism, pollute our environment... yes win today, and perhaps even tomorrow, but loose for humanity and the world of the future.

  HA HA

  I hope they put Intel out of business, would serve them right for sending all their fab plants to China in the first place.
