The Win-tel duopoly is about to become obsolete? An interesting editorial on the Enterprise Linux I.T. site claims that IBM and Sony are working together on a completely new processor architecture that's going to deliver supercomputer power to a single chip, putting a grid network into your desktop box. And with its extreme adaptabillity to different computing architecture, it's Linux that'll be used there first.

According to the editorial by Paul Murphy, Microsoft is too dependent on the Intel architecture to be able to make the transition, and will soon come to be seen as stalling out.

Linux Reality Outstrips Linux Myth.
