I'll toss a piece of info, if you'd like to add a correction to your article. The Quark, though it seem shrouded in mystery on the Edison, is not an Arm. If I read the specs, it is a 100 MHz Pentium class, single core, single threaded processor reduced to the 22 nm level, complete with the nostalgic floating point bug. So for those of us that have been programming for desktops for an era, there is less mystery surrounding the chip. Also noteworthy is the massive amounts of Arduino like code for this Quark. ... again, I'll toss a hint ... Galileo!
So in my opinion, the yet to come interesting aspect of Edison, which I see has already attracted an arduino based maker crowd as well as the traditional desktop and server programming crowd to the same item .. is how do they unveil the platform that allows the Quark part of the System On Chip to play with the Atom portion. And as you have seen, we are getting better as Makers in dealing with the Atom portion without tripping over a multi processor, multi operating system Edison.
