> Traditional operating systems such as Linux and windows are 100% dead when non volatile memory comes along in force. Paradigm shift time. I doubt they'd be dead, they just won't be able to do the new things that NVM would allow you to do (at first, anyway). At a minimum, mobile battery life could be better, depending on how much power is usually used to keep things going. Get an event from a radio or button and the system can instantaneously wake up. The magic trick that the NDS does when you close its lid will become universal.
