Interesting, I wonder if the non-deterministic behavior of Transmeta's processors makes it harder to perform cryptographic timing attacks on them. Anecdotally, I once owned a netbook that used one of these processors, a Vaio PCG-U3, but didn't notice any difference in speed when compared to other netbooks employing Atom processors, both were practically unusable even for basic activities.
