Well Atom 37xx could also bring use some other nice features:
  • VT-x (hardware visualization support), meaning we might be able to efficiently run arbitrary virtual machines with KVM
  • AES-NI (hardware encryption support) - could be used for efficient bulk data encryption (home or whole rootfs & home, etc.)
  • secure key (hardware random number generator) - could also help with encryption when the system is entropy starved
