Recently, Morgan Stanley about 30 companies in the PC manufacturers to conduct research and found that about 40% of the manufacturers interest in introducing such PC products, but specifically did not disclose the name of PC manufacturers. The report notes that these companies are willing to at least two years’ time this year to launch products based on ARM processor-based systems, which most likely means that by 2013, based on the ARM processor of the PC products in the market share will reach 10%.Of course, such findings do not bring us much unexpected, such as according to International Data Corporation predicts that by 2015 about 13 percent of global PC products will be based on the ARM architecture, of course, the premise is that the mainstream PC makers support.

Current ARM processor in the smart phone and tablet PC has a large share of the market, so many per capita are very concerned about the ARM processor on the PC, what will the performance of the product. However, the disadvantage is obvious ARM processor, such as can not be compatible with most Windows-based application software development, processor performance is not very high and so on.

Morgan Stanley’s report said: “We believe PC manufacturers that the transition to the ARM will face many uncertainties, such as the lack of customer acceptance of the estimates, software compatibility issues, which in 2012 will be the ARM processor are barrier device, we see that quad-core 28nm technology trends and applications, ARM camp will be improved in this respect a key factor and we believe the next two years, most of the ARM processors using 28nm or 20nm process will be Since TSMC 28nm has been leading, so we expect TSMC will get most of the business. ”

With Windows 8 system introduced in 2012, and NVIDIA or low-cost Texas Instruments has introduced these quad-core ARM Cortex-A9 processor market, PC vendors in the next year will be given the opportunity to test the water.
