Personal computers running Windows 8 on the Qualcomm Snapdragon processor that may be released later in 2012.
Reports from New.com in a meeting with investors in New York, Qualcomm CEO Paul Jacobs said the company worked with Microsoft to ensure that the processor will make its Snapdragon work well with Windows 8. Microsoft announced earlier this year that Windows 8 will be made to run on the ARM processor as to what they will do with Qualcomm.
Some people have pointed out that the PC Windows 8 running on an ARM processor will not run with older software programs designed for the Windows operating system in the past. However, Qualcomm executive vice president, Steve Mollenkopf said that it would not be a problem for the PC Windows 8 running on their platform. Many common PC applications will be rewritten to work on processors designed by ARM and Snapdragon. He also said that other applications will be moved to storage space on the server cloud, thereby ignoring the need of any particular processor.
He added: "For the applications that you really care, I do not see them as a significant curb growth in terms of the ARM and Windows. "
