Yeah, this is interesting (although Microsoft have been developing/building/running other-architecture builds of Windows, internally, for years), but the thing that bugs me is that they haven't done the Fat-binary thing so that the same .EXE will run on both platforms, and there's no superlative-emulation in the configuration (like Apple had) to make it easier for customers to deploy both platforms, and .. so on .. and on ..

Still, it'll be nice to see ARM become a lot more viable as a solution for corporate deployment, if it happens ..
