Oh, no question. Does hp make chips though? Apple's got the A4, i'm sure they struggled getting that up to 1G. It's probably not fair to expand the scope beyond laptops though.

It seems like apple got intel to dust off the atom chip for the air, and they pushed that ssd stuff for a while. maybe HP did some of that stuff first.

* I'm kind of a fan boy. much less enamored of apple due to the ios programming language restrictions.

Do a little bit of research into Superdome.

HP doesn't make main processors any longer, since they transitioned to Itanium, PA-RISC is gone, and HP sold off its CPU design and fabrication to Intel.
