Intel Atom: the next big thing

[ErosOlmi]

I have the impression Intel Atom processor will be the next big thing: so little, so power and even compatible with latest processors.

Now you know why the last year I have been always so passionate about being able to program for these devices. We need to use thinBasic on these platforms.
Maybe we should make it a community effort.

Develop thinBasic to final version for win98 (I think this was going to be version 2.0). Put all thinBasic development on hold and pick the core language that will give us cross device support. Then we can mobilize our community to help in migrating to future and these devices that are going to be everywhere and allow us to program in the language we love thinBasic.
