"Project Denver is an ARM architecture CPU being designed by Nvidia, targeted at personal computers, servers, and supercomputers. The CPU package will include an Nvidia GPU on-chip. The existence of Project Denver was revealed at the 2011 Consumer Electronics Show. Microsoft also announced that the upcoming Microsoft Windows 8 operating system will be able to run on ARM architecture CPUs such as Project Denver. In a March 4th 2011 Q&A article CEO Jen-Hsun Huang revealed that Project Denver is a five year 64-bit ARM architecture CPU development on which hundreds of engineers had already worked on for three and half years and which also has 32-bit ARM architecture backwards compatibility. The Project Denver CPU internally translates the ARM instructions to an internal instruction set, using firmware in the CPU. According to Charlie Demerjian, Project Denver was originally intended to be a x86 CPU, but was changed to the ARM-64 instruction set because Nvidia could not obtain a license to Intel's patents" http://www.facebook.com/pages/Project-Denver/188881574472741
http://blogs.nvidia.com/2011/01/project-denver-processor-to-usher-in-new-era-of-computing/ Jan 5 2011 "Microsoft’s announcement that it is bringing Windows to ultra-low power processors like ARM-based CPUs provides the final ingredient needed to enable ARM-based PCs based on Denver. Along with software stacks based on Android, Symbian, and iOS, Windows for ultra-low power processors demonstrates the huge momentum behind low-power solutions that will ultimately propel the ARM architecture to dominance. An ARM processor coupled with an NVIDIA GPU represents the computing platform of the future. A high-performance CPU with a standard instruction set will run the serial parts of applications and provide compatibility while a highly-parallel, highly-efficient GPU will run the parallel portions of programs. The result is that future systems – from the thinnest laptops to the biggest data centers, and everything in between — will deliver an outstanding combination of performance and power efficiency. Their processors will provide the best of both worlds, while enabling increased battery life for mobile solutions. We’re really excited to help engineer smarter brains for the next major era in computing."

6 Jan 2011 : Shares in chip designer ARM Holdings jumped another 8% today after Microsoft confirmed its new smartphones and tablet computers will use the British company's architecture and top graphics chip-maker Nvidia chose it for its new products. ARM shares have soared 25% since talk of its adoption by Microsoft surfaced just before Christmas. Today they rose 35.6p to 507p — their highest since the dotcom bubble burst 10 years ago. http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/standard-business/article-23911374-microsoft-makes-ally-of-arm-holdings-in-war-on-apple.do
February 17, 2012 " Intel's new mobile chips may give wireless carriers what they want: branded phones of their own, rather than having to rely on third-party handset makers to drive sales -- and take subsidies away from carrier revenue. If Intel can deliver that, then any concerns that Intel is too late to the mobile game could evaporate quickly -- and the market's love affair with rival ARM Holdings , which had a head start in mobile, could end as quickly as it began." http://www.fool.com/investing/general/2012/02/17/these-3-dow-stocks-closed-the-week-with-a-bang.aspx
Feb. 17, 2012, 2:39 p.m. EST BERKELEY, Calif. (MarketWatch) — The tech sector is abuzz over the fact that Microsoft Corp. stock looks like it is emerging from a decadelong slumber. A number of factors are playing into the run-up, which looks likely to continue through 2012. Microsoft: The actual changes going on that could affect future earning are as follows: ? the potential for Windows Phone success with Nokia Corp. and others; ? The upcoming release of Windows 8 for the PC; ? the sudden appearance of Windows running on the ARM Holdings PLC platform. Since we are seeing no serious traction with the Windows Phone, and Windows 8 to me is a routine upgrade, like the ones seen before, the only true and new variable here is Windows on ARM . Everything else is already accounted for. Of course perception is everything, and Microsoft still has a lot of potential. The company did not stop growing in 2001; it has shown steady progress. If it were more exciting as a company (or smaller), there would be more interest in the stock. If Microsoft wisely began to spin out three to five separate and publicly traded businesses, there would be a lot of excitement too. So far there has been no interest in doing so. The way I see the scenario, there is only one thing that is going to drive Microsoft stock to $40 and beyond, and that’s the success of Windows on ARM chips. Now the good news and the bad news: The good news is that Redmond will continue doing well in its dreary old-fashioned way. There is still no close competition on the desktop, and all the traditional aspects of the company appear to be running smoothly. Windows 8 is still a monopoly and will result in a little boost, but not much. People are not going to flock to the upgrade, but it will do OK. Now the bad news: I cannot see how Windows on ARM will become anything other than a loser or something of a nightmare for Microsoft. The company has never done well off the Intel platform. http://www.marketwatch.com/story/taking-stock-of-the-microsoft-rally-2012-02-17?link=MW_latest_news Fingers crossed and everything :))

HP Project Moonshot servers due first half of 2012 The Silicon Valley giant reveals servers based on ARM and Atom chips will start shipping within months. By Jennifer Scott, 14 Feb 2012 at 08:53 HP will be shipping servers based on ARM chips and Intel's Atom processors in the first half of this year. Confirmation of the launch timescale came today from Dave Donatelli, executive vice president and gemeral manager of enterprise storage, servers and networking [ESSN] at HP. The servers were born out of the 'Project Moonshot' research programme developed by HP and announced at the start of last November. The servers will be a significant boost to British chip designer ARM, which has traditionally been overlooked in favour of Intel and, to a lesser extent, AMD x86 processors. Donatelli took to the stage at HP's first global partner event in Las Vegas today, telling 3,000 HP partners his company was proud of the "game changing" announcements it had made in the server space in the past 100 days. "Instead of building out of x86, we are going to build servers out of ARM chips and Atom chips, those same chips from your smartphones," he said. "This will lead to all kinds of incredible advancements and change the market." Donatelli then confirmed the new servers would be shipping in "the first half of the calendar year." http://www.itpro.co.uk/638845/hp-project-moonshot-servers-due-first-half-of-2012

Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) is sitting in almost 100 billion USD in cash reserves that are generating almost no returns for shareholders in the current low interest rates environment. That is enough money to acquire some of the biggest companies in the world, and the possibilities are endless if we exercise some imagination. So many analysts are proposing Apple should start paying dividends with all that cash, it could be a one-time special dividend or a regular dividend policy that includes dividends increases as a long term policy. But there are many detractors to this idea, a lot of analysts and investors in the tech sector consider that dividend paying stocks automatically become slow growers, dinosaurs that lack exciting possibilities and an innovative spirit. This theory is mostly based on what has happened to other well-known tech companies since they starting paying dividends. Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) is perhaps the clearest example of what some Apple investors would like to avoid. Mr Softee started paying dividends in 2003, and since them the company has lost many of the paradigm shifts in the tech world. Search, advertising, social networks and mobile are some examples of growth opportunities that Microsoft didn´t capture. Intel (NASDAQ: INTC) paid its first dividend in 1992, and the company has done quite well in the long term if we exclude the rollercoaster stock movements and astronomical valuations produced by the dot com bubble. The company has delivered solid growth in sales and earnings, and it even increased profit margins through the years. But Intel has missed the shift to mobile and is just now trying to compete in this high growing industry. ARM Holdings (NASDAQ: ARMH) is the company who managed to beat Intel in the race for supplying smartphones and tablets with the high technology chips required to satisfy their customers’ needs. ARMH also pays dividends, but they are more recent and much smaller than those paid by Intel. It seems like in the technology sector higher dividends mean lower growth prospects. http://beta.fool.com/acardenal/2012/02/14/apple-and-dividend-stigma-think-different/1969/?source=eogyholnk0000001

Project Moonshot: HP's Secret ARM Servers Get Official ARM is invading the server market Even as x86 chipmakers like Intel Corp. (INTC) dream of getting a piece of lucrative smartphone and tablet chip market dominated by ARM Holdings plc (LON:ARM) licensees, ARM is ready to take the fight to Intel. Already preparing to invade the laptop space, courtesy of Microsoft Corp.'s (MSFT) incoming support with Windows 8, ARM has just taken a major step towards establishing a beachhead on Intel's most fertile and fast growing empire -- the server market. I. HP Throws Weight Behind ARM After weeks of rumors, Hewlett-Packard Comp. (HPQ), statistically tied [source] with International Business Machines, Inc. (IBM) as the world's largest server maker in terms of revenue, has announced that it will be deploying ARM-based servers. HP is a major server supplier to Facebook and Google Inc. (GOOG), the world's two top firms in terms of internet traffic. Dubbed "Project Moonshot", the new ARM servers will extend HP's veteran ProLiant brand, which has traditionally relied on x86 chips from Intel and Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (AMD). HP says the new ARM servers "for select workloads and applications" will reduce energy costs by 89 percent, reduce server room space by 94 percent, and reduce overall costs by 63 percent (versus equivalent x86-based servers). Those are some pretty incredible numbers, and it remains to be seen how well they hold up in the real world.
