Whatever happened to StrongARM? I can't find any references on the Wiki page paget the 1990's? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/StrongARM edit: fixed typo
They sold it to Marvell.
Intel CEO Announces Collaboration with Arduino

#12One major item of note that the news stories haven't picked up on: the Galileo board itself and all of its documentation, schematics, BOM, etc, are all Open Source under CC-by-sa. See, for instance, the schematic at https://communities.intel.com/docs/DOC-21822 , the BOM at https://communities.intel.com/docs/DOC-21823 , and the datasheet at https://communities.intel.com/docs/DOC-21831 .
That is pretty awesome, I have a much better feel for Galileo now than I did, its basically a PC with an Arduino Sheld Slot :-). I really liked the switchable 5v/3.3v I/O option.
So way back in the day folks would do unholy things to the parallel port in DOS to get this kind of feature :-) And of course thinking that I realized there is probably an interesting market if you put FreeDOS on this thing for the 'UX', which makes me wonder if Microsoft is going to wake up here at some point and come out with an OS for this stuff. (Not that it's needed, but like Intel they were a big deal in the early experimenters world and they are being made irrelevant in that space by Linux (like Intel is being threatened by ARM) and so I expect them to react at some point)

I'm still looking for the firmware code which they claim is "open source", too.

#14Here's the overview page for the Galileo board: http://www.intel.com/support/galileo/index.htm
It has links for downloads, specs, tutorials, etc. Looks like they won't be available for sale until November, though.
