The Wintel alliance that has dominated the PC space for so long, may be destined to end. Microsoft has announced in the last CES that they'll have the next Windows version on ARM platform also. Will it mean ARM will muscle into PC space! Maybe. But, as Jobs says this is the post PC era. May be they'll turn up on the tablets. The predominant OS Android is platform agnostic. Besides, all sorts of innovations seem to be coming to the tablet space! May be MS want to get there!
Windows 7 has not exactly been a hit in the smartphone segment. Whereas Arm is doing great in it. Can MS ride coattails of ARM there!
CES's biggest fallout --- Say good-bye to Wintel
